vocs: Same blood group, same Genotype. ****** I no type any brand name o!  I'm already feeling stronger now. I know for sure it's the mattress that's causing the symptoms Very very good, now we're getting something interesting! It's the mattress! |
Health › Re: A Strange Connection Between My Mattress And My Health by saintopus(m): 3:55pm On Oct 24 |
vocs: I am a very sensitive person. I notice little changes in my body, even things someone else might easily overlook. But what I experienced this time became too serious to ignore.
I created this Nairaland account specifically to share my experience while protecting my anonymity. I would rather keep my personal details private, but I feel this is serious enough to speak about.
Around the time I bought a new foam mattress, I started experiencing several troubling symptoms. These included tingling, pain under my feet, general body weakness and foamy urine.
I also had ulcer-like or gastritis-like symptoms. I received treatment for ulcer, stopped eating pepper and gave up alcohol completely. My tests were negative for H. pylori, but the stomach discomfort remained a concern.
There was also this weak or heavy feeling on the side of my body I normally sleep on. I could still grip things and move normally, but if I held my phone to my ear with that arm, it would get tired quickly and I would have to change hands.
At the height of it, I started shaking. I couldn’t even balance properly on one foot. I underwent several medical investigations, including urinalysis, a stool test, an ECG and a full blood count.
My fiancée has also mentioned muscle pulls, tingling in her hands and pain under her leg, although her symptoms were much milder than mine. She only slept on the mattress occasionally and never connected her symptoms to it. Looking back at my own experience, I now suspect there may be a connection in her case too. I wonder whether her less frequent use could explain the difference, but neither has been confirmed.
For a long time, I didn’t connect any of this to the mattress.
I noticed that whenever I travelled and stayed in a hotel, I felt better. On separate occasions when I slept on the couch in my parlour, I also felt better. At the time, I didn’t understand why.
More recently, I slept in the guest room in my house for about a week, and my symptoms stopped completely, including the tingling and pain under my feet.
Something else surprised me: after about one year of avoiding pepper because of the stomach symptoms, I could eat it again without the discomfort I had previously experienced—after just one week of sleeping away from the mattress.
At first, I thought something in my bedroom was responsible. So I brought the same mattress out to the parlour and slept on it there.
The symptoms started coming back.
That was when I looked back and realised that the symptoms had first appeared around the time I bought the mattress.
After that, I compared what happened on a few more occasions when I slept on other mattresses and when I slept on this particular one. The same pattern kept showing up: I felt well on the other mattresses, but the symptoms returned when I slept on the new one.
That repeated experience is why I now strongly suspect something about this mattress. It wasn’t just a matter of changing rooms—the symptoms seemed to follow the mattress.
I haven’t had it professionally tested, so I cannot say whether the issue involves its materials, chemical emissions, the support it provides or something else. These observations, including the improvement in my stomach symptoms, do not establish the medical cause. A manufacturing defect has not been confirmed either.
I won’t mention the brand for now. My reason for posting is to ask: has anybody here experienced something similar after buying a mattress recently?
Did you notice unusual pains, tingling, muscle cramps, weakness or stomach discomfort? Did the symptoms stop when you slept elsewhere? Did a doctor identify the cause, or were you able to have the mattress tested?
Please share your firsthand experience. I am concerned that, if there is a product-related problem, other people could be experiencing symptoms without noticing a connection. That possibility deserves proper investigation.
Please seek medical attention for symptoms such as weakness, shaking or difficulty balancing. Similar symptoms can have different causes. I also wouldn’t advise anyone to repeatedly sleep on a suspected mattress to test it.
Mod please push this to fp. Many people may be suffering without knowing the cause. Okay, sorry to ask you. What blood group are you? In case you want to know mine first: O+, AA. Why am asking is that I am having a similar experience, I have been sleeping on the floor for the past 2 days, and I have seen improvement. Should you eventually have a corelation between the symptoms and the mattress, then no need of doing anything about it. Just give it out to someone else. But on a second thought again, my own product is Mouka semi orthopedic, probably they may have manufactured thousands of that product and sold. Some of the customers may not be having our own similar experiences. So could it be related to our individual body system? This was why I asked of your blood group. If you've confirmed the relationship, then know that it won't improve upon prolonged usage or exposure to sunlight. Just give it out, but make sure to ask the person you're giving the person body system. Because I don't think it happened to all people. My wife and I have been sleeping in same bed, she has not complained. Finally, in case you find a better product let me know. Cos am giving that mattress out. Thank you so much. I write from Port Harcourt RS. |

If in Rivers State a governor can come from anywhere and everybody is ok with it. It can equally happen in Nigeria. In Rivers State the last governor is from Obio-Akpor LGA, the next Governor is still from the same LGA. Our rainbow coalition don't recognise where you come from. You can come from Kafanchan and become a governor of Rivers State under our Rainbow Coalition led by our maximum leader and the FCT Minister.
So it is in Nigeria. We don't recognise zoning anymore if like come from Uganda so long as you can win the election we're okay |

Mod please push this to fp. Many people may be suffering without knowing the cause. You made a fantastic observation! It's what am currently suffering from. I've decided to sleep on the floor with a mat and pillow, the symptoms are reducing gradually. I will sleep on the floor for at least a week and see how the body will react. For the past 2 days I started sleeping on the floor, the aches are nearly gone. The bloating and ulcerative symptoms are milder now than before. With this your observation I can go ahead to observe mine too. |

We have a very long way to go in this country. The young girls will be the greatest hit. For those who wants to get married, ensure that you marry a lady who has the ability to take care of herself, by this I mean, she should be able to work and rent her own house, buy her own food, clothes herself, buy medicines for herself when sick, buy data for herself, etc. See, make no body deceive you, Nigeria isn't getting better. It's going to get worse. To the young, go ahead and learn a skill. It will pay you better. If you choose education, well, I won't judge you but your journey will be long.

A foooolish decision remains a fooooolish decision. From the inception of the project lovers of Nigeria keep on saying how futile the project was. First from the 15 trillion naira budget, to the awarding of the contract to a relatively unknown company. People from the South- South have been crying for help to repair the East- West road. The government didn't see it reasonable enough. They now realise how it was a white elephant project so to admit the massive failure they now decided to connect the road to the East- West road. I was waiting to see how they will construct the road through Bonny river in Rivers State to Okrika LGA then to Azumini in Abia state and cross to Akwa Ibom.

silibaba: Even if you marry an asset, then be ready to share power with her. No woman give anything for free. To be honest most men are not bothered about shared responsibilities and power in marriage. Even now that the whole responsibilities of bringing up the family is on the man's head the men still carry out those activities that are meant for the wife such as going to the market, cooking, washing I do all that in my family yet am still the sole provider. So am not bothered about shared responsibilities and power in marriage so long as she takes care of at least 35% of responsibilities. The men are are not asking for too much. Wife buy maggi, she go talk, wife fill gas when the man no get anything, she go use that one insult the man. Is it good? So women will nag fire out of the man only to worship their pastor. Is okay? |

The institution offers a near-zero benefit more especially if you marry a liability. So if you want to do the marriage thing ensure that the lady can be able to independently take care of her self from her hard earned money. Such as house rent, feeding, data, toiletries etc. Am over 50 years old and 16 years in marriage with 3 children and am telling you the honest truth. |
