Hi Maggie--

I've noticed too that I have pain that comes and goes in different parts of my body-- ribs, hips, thighs. It is manageable, and seems to be a result of increased activity since ending treatment for early-stage bc. I'm not sure of your situation, but I do have the sense that our bodies are not the same as they were pre-tx and that it will take some time to work the kinks out.

And I've heard great things about the foam mattresses too. I have a foam neck pillow that has been an absolute God send. Now, I've also heard about the mattresses that they can be a little warm, and also (ahem) a little hard to maneuver around if/when you and your chosen partner are in the mood. Just an fyi, not a show-stopper. There was a big conversation about these beds in a design blog that I follow-- apartmenttherapy.com if you'd like to read more.

Good luck, and hope you're feeling pain free very soon.

Jen
