What a night. Ugghh.
At 4:58, after struggling with burning feet, chest pain, pounding head, etc, I finally got out of bed and removed the elevator from under my mattress - which left me crawling on the floor, dizzy and vomiting from the exertion. Never did get my mattress back on my bed. (insert complaints about this damn disease)
@manna you were right. 4 1/4 inches was WAY too much. What is a conservative starting point?
So I'm back to square one. My headboard weighs a ton - too heavy to put lifts under. Looks like I'll have to go @Sasha 's route and order something from a local fabricator.
Is it really worth it? Is anyone really having success for anything other than reflux?
Ooh, the brave guinea pig seems to have payed mightily for her venture--so sorry!
I forget, had you been using anything like pillows to raises your upper body before this experiment?
I've been using folded blankets and flat pillows to try to build up an incline but of course this isn't very stable. It does seem to be a better position for heart functioning though.
