Hi I’ve been suffering with severe spinal lumbar stenosis for nearly 18 months and am now on the waiting list for a decompression operation to help me walk without pain. I am looking to buy a new mattress and I would be grateful if anyone could advise which would be the best for my condition. Thanks

I would suggest you talk to a occupational therapist they specialise in aids and equipment

Sorry I can’t recommend anyone but would agree that an OT would be first port of call. Hope you sort it.
