I hear a lot of talk about mattresses by Tempur.

I have been sleeping in a hospital bed for years (regular latex mattress). All other beds are far too low for me to get into or out of; this one can be set to a greater height. It's set at the height between a normal seat and a barstool. It's still difficult to get in and out of bed, but at least this bed helps a bit. I can automatically adjust the front and back of the bed (very nice when feet are swollen).

I too barely sleep. I wake up every three hours or so if I sleep and I rarely feel rested. That's why I fall asleep throughout the morning (until noon and beyond) and even then I automatically nap (fall asleep) every few hours in the afternoon. It never stops. There are days where I go to bed between 6 and 8 PM, and I still manage to sleep until 2 the next day (with lots of awake time, intermissions). If I don't take my muscle relaxants before bed, I don't sleep at all, then I only manage to sleep about once every 2 days and my legs will be as stiff as hell!
