Hi jd,
I can see that you’re very frustrated and perhaps even somewhat angry and unfortunately that seems to have led you to “misrepresenting” or “mistranslating” much of the information you have read on this site.
I don’t really know where to begin to correct many of the statements you made in your post that talk about what you somehow have come to believe about your experience or what is said on the site that contradicts the actual information that is written here (including many of the links that I have provided in this topic) and it may be pointless anyway because based on your comments I suspect it would only lead to many more hours of providing even more links or information than I already have to “correct” much of what you are saying or believe or to try and provide information that I thought would help you only to have them mistranslated once again and then have to do it all over again in the next post. Perhaps it’s just easier to let it stand as one person’s thoughts about the information on the site or about the information that I have taken many hours to provide to you in this topic. I really don’t know what else I can do to help you other than the information that I and European Sleep Works have already provided either in person or in this topic.
The bottom line is that you have some medical issues that have made it very difficult for you to find a mattress that is a good “match” for you in terms of PPP over the years that has affected how well you have slept on mattresses you have purchased that would normally have worked well for others that didn’t have some of the difficult challenges you are facing. While I can certainly sympathize with situations like yours … the reality is that there may not be a mattress that can completely compensate for some of the physiological challenges you are facing or that will continue “working” for you or that you will be happy with over time and as you mentioned with situations like yours you are somewhat of a “moving target” where a mattress may work for a while and then no longer continue to work for you. In addition to this … the only way for you to know whether any mattress will work well for you over time will be based on your own personal sleeping experience … not on “theory”.
I’m certainly happy to answer any specific questions you may have (as long as they are relatively simple enough to answer on a forum) when it comes to mattresses or mattress materials or even mattress design that I can help with but I’m not a doctor or health professional that is able to deal with issues that are caused primarily by specific health or physiological challenges on a forum.
I know that this may not be what you “want” to hear but IMO and based on your history and on the information you have posted here it is the reality of what you are dealing with. I would keep in mind that a mattress can’t solve pre-existing health or physiological issues you may have (although it can certainly make them easier to deal with or sometimes help prevent them from getting worse) and that there may be no “perfect” mattress for you that you may be happy with over the longer term.
I would also take the time to read post #1 here from a very well informed and knowledgeable member of the forum that is an athlete and physical trainer that works closely with others in the health and medical profession that may help you maintain realistic expectations about what a mattress can and can’t do for you.
