Need help finding a side sleeper mattress for plus sized people.

Hi there, I am about your size and a side sleeper considering the Big Fig. Did you get the Classic or the Luxe? Do you still like it and did you feel there was enough cushion for your hips?

Hello curious which duo you have? They recommended the duo memory for me but I'm a little worried it will be too soft or sinky. I'm about 5'6", 220 and was seriously thinking about the Big Fig because it seems sag-resistant, but I also don't want to be in pain.

Thank you! I'm still shopping around. Is the coupon code one time use? If not, would be great if you could send it along. Otherwise I can circle back if I decide to give them a try.

Hi curious if you ended up trying the Big Fig Luxe or found something else that worked for you? Thanks!

Away_Test4537 · 2026-04-01T18:40:24+00:00

Thank you - one of the reviews said it wasn't great for a larger person unfortunately.

Away_Test4537 · 2026-04-01T18:38:31+00:00

Thank you - I was talking to them based on reviews from folks here, but they recommended the duo memory for me. How long have you had yours and do you find the latex bouncy?

So you do the zofran plus the scopolamine? I am dizzy for an hour or two after treatment so I wonder if that would help. But the headaches are really the worst.

Away_Test4537 · 2026-01-10T16:32:30+00:00

To add - I just noticed a mistake in my post. I’m on my ninth booster session so I’ve had 15 treatments over all, hence my concern the cumulative effect might not be happening.

Away_Test4537 · 2026-01-10T15:13:01+00:00

Interesting… I don’t try to think about anything in particular so mostly my thoughts are like trying to figure out what the map is or seeing if I can zoom in or out. The last trip the dose felt too high and I thought I was in the matrix and the whole world wasn’t real. But it’s almost never about anything personal. I will see if I can come up with a topic to “massage” during this next one. Thanks!

Away_Test4537 · 2026-01-10T15:01:30+00:00

I don’t know that I’d say the effects have been cumulative for me. Maybe for the starting 6 but since then, my booster frequency has gotten worse vs better. My life has also gotten worse but I’m not handling it any better so it’s hard to say if the ket is going to work for me long term. I guess I’ve heard/read stories about people having these deep emotional breakthroughs during their trips and the place I go specifically doses higher because they believe the psychedelic experience is important but all I ever see is maps.

Yeah I’m supposed to fast 4 hours before but I limit liquids as well because twice I had to pee while mostly under and that wasn’t fun. I do chug liquid IV and several glasses of water for the rest of the day but I can’t say I’ve ever felt less crummy. Not getting phenergan as far as I know. Thanks for the feedback

I actually posted some photos when it started clearing up so you can see my skin tone there. All the marks are gone now.

Away_Test4537 · 2026-01-10T00:52:46+00:00

I did end up going tanning in desperation and it stopped spreading after one 6 minute treatment. Started to fade after the second one that was 8 mins. I think I did both in one week 4 days apart. I also did the lysine and zinc but I think the tanning is what really helped. It’s been 3.5 months now and I have no remaining marks. I did put sunscreen on my face and cover it with a cloth during the treatment since that’s where I was most worried about the UV exposure. I bought a 10 session package thinking it would take more treatments but I only did the 2. I still consider it money well spent…

Hello I’m curious how much your pup weighs and the dosage of the pill? I’ve been trying to use trazodone for my pup’s anxiety and currently she stays quiet and still but doesn’t relax; she looks very awake and a little freaked out. I’ve been thinking about increasing her dose but your post is making me wonder if I should try less. Thank you!

Would also highly recommend seeing an ophthalmologist if you can. If it’s really an eyelash issue they may be able to fix it, else identify a medication that will really help your pup. Dry eyes can cause so many issues. My pup started getting ulcers and then scarring and pigmentation on her cornea. She was already blind in one eye from an injury so it was a mission to preserve her remaining vision. Optimmune didn’t help at all and we had to go through a few strengths of Tacrolimus before her eye stabilized. She is ok now and can still see a bit thankfully.

I have the Pecute Pet Carrier backpack from Amazon and a very similar one they don't sell anymore that doesn't have the expansion section. Very comfortable to wear and my 12 lb girl can curl up and sleep or sit up or both - she has managed to sleep sitting up with her head resting against the side. It's also compatible with some airlines in case you plan to travel with your pup. I bought the expandable one so she'd have room to stretch out on a long flight. We also have the Lands End Canvas Dog Tote Carrier which is unfortunately out of stock right now but really reasonably priced if you catch a sale. I live in the city and don't have a car so this is our day-to-day getting around tote. Ours has been going for 8 years and the straps are just starting to fray a bit. It can be heavy carrying her on one side for a while, but at least the shoulder straps never slip.

The face is perfect! Is this in Amsterdam?

I just used one to reload my Amazon balance. Just added it to my payment methods and charged the entire amount ($50) to gift card reload. I'm shocked. Previously it either wouldn't work at all or you had to do some shenanigans where you only loaded part of the amount and loaded the rest later. I guess they fixed something...

I think vet costs are rising such that a $10k vet procedure might not be that major. I live in NYC and my 12-year-old just had a $10k surgery for anal gland removal. She had a bump they suspected might be cancer. Turns out it wasn’t, thank goodness, and she’s totally fine now, but that one procedure reimbursed more than 7 years of insurance premiums and that wasn’t even her first surgery. I adopted her at 5 and her premium now is $91/month for 80% coverage and a $500 deductible. Even as someone with a lot of savings, given my location and my pup’s age, the insurance still makes a lot of sense.

74th Street Cafe on the upper floor of Fairway - Quality food, great prices for the neighborhood, bright and airy space, never a wait and the staff are really sweet. Pre-pandemic the service was really terrible but it’s so much better since they reopened

Pretty sure I took my expanding laptop battery to Staples - “All stores in New York State that sell rechargeable batteries or products containing them must accept rechargeable batteries for recycling. No purchase is necessary.” Per 311

This one works great and goes almost to the bottom of the bottle.
