Adjustable bed frames: Acid reflux after esophageal cancer treatment

Posted by Lori57216 @lori57216, Jan 22, 2022

Esophogeal cancer treatment, surgery to remove esopohagus survivor. Still suffering from bad acid reflux even with omeprazole BID. Anyone recommend an adjustable bed frame that won't break the bank. I did lift the head of my bed frame up the recommended 6" but I need a frame / mattress that also bends at the knees so I'm not sliding out of bed.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Esophageal Cancer Support Group.

@lori57216 - Several years ago we bought a Ghostbed Split California King adjustable base bed (2 TwinXL Frames pushed together). The ZG (zero gravity) position is really comfortable and takes pressure off of the lower back. https://www.ghostbed.com/products/adjustable-base. It was the cheapest frame we could find. Costco has them on sale once a year or so but don't know when.

@lori57216 I believe @johnbishop has some knowledge on adjustable bed frames that he may be willing to share with you. His interest was due to neuropathy, but nonetheless, the information may prove helpful to you!
