Best Bed for Spinal Stenosis and related Spinal injuries

I have Spinal Stenosis which is excruciating getting out of a flat bed. When I bought the Adjustable Bed, I had two years of Pain, mostly level 10. In some cases had to take Narcotics to even do basic chores. Ever since getting the Bed and mattress it is like night and day. Medical people do not tell you about Zero Gavity. This is the Key to relief. A recliner will do in a pinch but a bed is better. You must raise your legs to highest position and the head to where you can get relief without totally sitting up. This works so Well that Recently the pain in my left leg is basically gone. Since I have Gerd it works for both. The pain caused heart issues by Raising my blood pressure. I now take 3 medicines daily. If I had known before, they would not have been required. But the damage is done, not sure if it can be reversed. If I lay flat, on my side, or on Stomach, pain returns. It is a shame that it took Two years to find the answer. I found it on line and not from any Medical person but from a Website. When I first injured my back, with ruptured disc, they also never told me. By accident, fell asleep in Recliner, woke up with reduced pain. Did that for 6 months. Since this happened over 30 years ago, I forgot. I did not know about the Zero gravity so did not connect using a adjustable bed and mattress for Stenosis. It just Angers me that People are willing to see people in extreme pain when there is a easy fix to end it. I only know one person, who sleeps in a Recliner and did not consider a adjustable bed. Will it fix everyone? Not sure, but anything that removes or lessens pain is good. I rather give a Positive review that helps others. Is there a down side, maybe? But if you can exercise, even in bed. That would help. Have a Happy pain free life.

Pros
  • Almost what we expected. Wish it were a bit thikei and tiny hair softer.
Cons
  • The mattress may be too soft for heavier patients, leading to inadequate support
