I had a particularly poor night in another futile attempt to engage in what passes for sleep. This is related to my health problems and isn't a passing thing and will not get better. I have pain in most parts of my muscular/skeletal system and am not able to sleep in one position for very long.

My wife made a comment a minute ago that a local store has on sale memory foam mattress toppers. I have always suspected that I wouldn't like sleeping on one but have never had an opportunity to try one. They are expensive.

Does anybody have any experience with this sort of mattress or mattress topper? In particular anyone with any type of arthritis?
