Hi Kevin,
About 18 months ago we purchased a new bed. It is a firm mattress with a
pillow-top.
We are both finding it most comfortable.
Previously we had a firm bed without the pillow-top.
Even my husband who does not have TM found the old one was hard on his
shoulders and hips.
I know that there are special beds as well if you are concerned about
bedsores etc.
From what I remember you are confined a lot of the time to bed.
I'm sure there are others who will be able to give you mroe advice.
Perhaps too you could check with your homeand health stores.
Or even with a doctor of physio or health care person.
I'm sure there are beds out there that would be good for you with the
problems we all deal with with TM.
Let us know what you finally decide to do.
Heather in Calgary

Subject: [TMIC] OT bed question
Hi Friends,
I'm sorry I haven't been on as much as I'd like. I'm trying to
figure out my life now which is very different, and feel a bit
lost.
I was wondering if anyone could advise me. I need to buy
a new bed as mine is caving in and hurting my back. I can't
get out to bed shop, but I've heard that Sealy Posturepedic
makes the best mattress, and someone on tv recommended
medium hard? I'd like to hear your opinions.
Thanks,
Kevin
