Essentially bedridden for years things have become harder for me as I constantly have to shift around and find it hard to get comfortable since my back is constantly sore as it never has a chance to properly heal from my lying down. Upper spine and neck area cause me grief as well.
I don't know what to do, have tried memory foam mattresses but those just give me more spinal pain less back pain. I recline back against a number of pillows and have tried all kinds of different pillows but it never seems to make a difference. I've tried sitting up all day long in a chair but it wears me out, feel so much better when reclining on a soft surface or better yet lying completely flat. I once bought a massage table thinking that something absolutely flat would put even pressure on my back but it didn't really help. Have had actual massages every week for a month or two in the past without success.
I think I would have a more energy if my back were healed as shifting around constantly takes up energy. Does anyone else have issues like this? Are there any worthwhile solutions?
