A memory foam mattress. If you haven`t already got one,make it a priority today. I slept on one last night and for the first time in years,I slept like a log...but the real proof was going to come in the morning.Normally I have to either inch my way into a sitting position,or roll off the bed sideways and gradually inch myself into an upright position from a crumpled heap on the floor.The pain is usually severe and I generally make it to the bathroom in a walking style...not unlike one of those transformer/robot "thingy`s." Elegant.....NO WAY. But..... this morning.....no pain...from lying down to upright in one smooth,fluid movement.No groans of pain punctuating each inch of movement. Just one [dare I say it] graceful sweep and I was sitting up.... blinking in disbelief but a grin the width of the world,spreading across my face. So...there you have it; A brilliant sleep No pain on waking Walking easily first thing And I hardly dare hope...but usually,within 10 minutes or so of waking...dystonia sets in for half an hour.EVERY MORNING WITHOUT FAIL. I have been awake almost an hour and so far....well I daren`t say it but...will let you know. x |

We got a TempurPedic matress about 4 months ago. It would be considered a memory foam type mattress. It is fabulous.........I sleep like a baby with virually no more morning back pain. I wouldn't trade that thing for a ranch in Texas !!!! Caya |

Its unbelievable.I don`t very often invest in luxury stuff for myself but this is the best.Over 2 hours later and no dystonia either.I am waiting for it to hit with a vengeance...but it would be wonderful if I could say goodbye altogether with that inconvenience.
Such a seemingly minor addition...what a MAJOR difference. x |

I said I would let you guys know if my dystonia happened or not.It is now 10 30 pm in the uk...and not a sign of dystonia. What`s all this about?
One night on a memory foam mattress and immediately some respite from so much pain and agonising cramping. WOW....hardly dare believe it will last. x |
