I would not go with just a memory foam. I bought a new mattress pre WLS and the research on what was good for heavy people led me to get a Saatva, it's a spring, latex and pillow top mattress and worked great previously and was so comfy I haven't bothered to change it. I can't remember all the research outcomes but know I definitely wanted something with springs.

Is a latex mattress a good type of mattress for a heavy person? My spring mattress needs replacing and I'm trying to figure out whether to get a latex mattress or a memory foam.

Most people use memory foam mattresses now but I've been reading they don't have the bounce needed to help a large person move when in the bed. memory foam can be difficult to move from side to side.

Is latex good for someone plus size do you know?

I don't want to fork out a lot of money and then realize it was a stupid idea.

Thanx

I fully support your position. I am a member of the future patient's family (at least I hope so), and I understand that inaction can lead to more disastrous consequences. It's normal to be afraid of change, but it's not normal to understand that you are on edge and do nothing.
The nurse's words cheered me up.

First, forgive yourself. Keep blaming yourself is only going to make the problem worse.

Second, knowing there's a problem is the first step towards correcting the underlying issues.

Third, set a course of action, whether seeing a counselor or psychologist that deals with weight issues.

And

Fourth, find a weight loss program that program that teaches proper nutrition, support, and teaches how to handle head hunger as opposed to physical hunger.

When you do see your pcp, you can tell them how you are addressing the issues at hand. Believe me, there are so many in the same boat as you.
