I am disabled due to a a genetic bone disease in my spine. I had a spinal fusion back in 2007 that never worked. I have osteoporosis and osteopenia in spine and also arthritis in lumbar and hip regions. I have a very very soft mattress and it is agony every night trying to sleep in it. I have strong painkillers that don’t touch it I need help and support

That doesn't sound nice at all, I'm sorry the pain killers aren't helping. Are you in regular contact with your GP and hospital?0
