  • I never had any problems till i got this mattress last year 🤷‍♀️ I can't afford to buy another mattress so I guess I will have to keep on aching and having a bad nights sleep 😞

    I recently purchased one from Dreams, was worried for the first few days about the firmness, then realised the back pain i have had for a few years has now gone.
    Think you need to see a back specialist on this one.

    On my fourth mattress in the last twelve months .
    if i could manage 2 months on a firmer mattress all would be better .

    OP with addition of a pad and still bad back it suggests not the mattress .
    Are you sure your GP  is closed ??
  • I don't mean my doctors is closed but they are only seeing people for urgent stuff and then its only a phone call. When I don't sleep on the new mattress my pain goes away so that makes me think the mattress is the problem

    What are you sleeping on instead?  It sounds like you have another mattress that is comfortable, so I would sell the Dreams one on eBay or similar, as a way of getting something back for it.
  • I have a spare single bed in another bedroom I keep sleeping on but its very springy! My new dreams mattress is king size so I cant swap the mattress

    Does that mean the mattress feels really soft ??
    Problems with a springy mattress to soft is that they are bad for backs .
  • Not all mattress toppers are equal 

    I had a feather mattress for years until it died ( the feathers were crushed ) and it was the most comfortable sleep ever. Then I bought a memory foam one - had to give it away, didn't suit me at all
