Good grief, you think I will live longer than I think I will. About $5500. Can't get smaller than a double, but as no woman will put up with me I saved a few bucks with single controls. The President is a fink. |

Wizard Administrator Member since: Oct 23, 2012 Threads: 239 Posts: 6095 | I use a memory-foam mattress of the hardest available firmness. It's great. It was rather expensive for a piece of foam, but I have no regrets. I suffer a lot of sleeping problems, but at least can't blame the mattress any longer. It also helped with back issues, but exercise helped about 10 times more. I am intrigued by EB's inclined mattress idea. I've camped lots of times and when on a slope, prefer to have my head high. It seems more comfortable. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |

It's important to have your head above your heart. Too much blood stimulates the brain and keeps you awake. And sleeping on your back keeps your organs from shifting like they do when sleeping on your side. An incline gets rid of most nightime breathing problems. Just use pillows, costs nothing to try it. I never have any morning aches and pains, and never change position because I'm always comfortable. If you can make it work it will change your sleep life. I also wear a Breathe Rite strip on my nose and wear the construction noise reduction muffs we discussed a few years ago. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I used shims to elevate the head of the bed, but as far as I can tell "organ shifting" has never bothered me. However that organ grinder and his monkey outside my window all night is driving me crazy. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

Face Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 61 Posts: 3941 | I suggest, rather than "one cheap trick, chiropractors hate him" testament, is to just experiment yourself. I don't have a headboard, so while I lie with a pillow, I lose it to the floor as soon as I'm out. I haven't slept with one in well over a year, perhaps as many as 3. I don't want to credit it with too much as I've made several lifestyle changes during that time, but I'm out every day within 2 min, never wake up, wake at 0530 sans alarm easily, and actually feel invigorated instead of typically groggy. Be bold and risk defeat, or be cautious and encourage it. |

And you're what, 30 something? Wait till you're 50 or 60 something and get back to us. You got changes coming you can't even imagine in your 30's. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

It must be nice to be a youngster. By 5:30am I have been to the bathroom at least three times since going to sleep. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

Only 3? I remember those days.. Sigh.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
