tempur-pedic bed. leaky eyes, nose bleeds, bad eye infection, heart pounding in a few minutes after i got into bed. My husband mental depression, confusion, eyes watering, nose running, tongue and lip burning. Memory foam pillows my husband had for his neck and now such confusion and mood swing.I will look into this. That bed went out so fast and all the pillows. Thank God for internet to help us solve these problems. But I saved the bed and pillows I will call the company

David - please update what is your patch test result look like with this tempurpedic swatch. My husband is experiencing this issue right now and I would like to know if he could be allergic to our 3 year old bed. I pray that it can heal for you and my husband both.

I'm having the same problem. I been having hives for over 9 months. Only at night when I go to bed.

I am so glad I found this post! I have been racking my brain trying to figure out what my problem was. I thought I had a serious skin disease, which I couldn't point to anything since I don't tend to eat processed or inorganic foods. I have always had good healthy skin and developed red sores on my cheeks a little after using a tempur pedic pillow. I had been using it for over a year and because sometimes the pillow is uncomfortable I will sleep without one. I did this for a few nights and realized my face was significantly better. I have stopped using the pillow and my face is slowly healing without any new occurrences. I also have sensitivities to chemicals and such, so I am not sure if this is a chemical thing or a heat thing, probably both.
But thank you all commenters for confirming my thoughts!

The new tempur models have breeze technology specifically for hot sleepers. I've personally laid on them and they are very cool. Don't risk the health of your body by only reading reviews on forums. I bought mine from sleepys and they are surprisingly knowledgeable about a persons body and what they need to get the best nights sleep.

We bought our Tempurpedic in 2006.. most comfortable bed ever!
But.. three months ago my husband had a shoulder operation and I moved into the Guest room (slept fine). Then last month, he had recovered, and I returned to the Tempurpedic in our master bedroom and WHAMMO!!! The rash is everywhere and it seems to move around on my body.. I now wake up and itch like mad and it WILL NOT STOP! Three weeks of this is enough. I Googled 'Memory Foam Mattress and itch, rash, etc. -- and now I get it. This is exactly how everyone has described.. an itch that will wake you out of a sound sleep -- and now I'm wheezing as well. THANK YOU - THANK YOU - THANK YOU EVERYONE,
And Thank you for the Internet where we can find information like this.
Tonight I'm going back to the Guest room and I hope that over the coming week this GOD AWFUL itchy rash and wheezing will go away.
I'm going to keep an eye on my husband's health and this "expensive bed" as well. THESE BEDS SHOULD BE MADE TO HAVE A WARNING LABEL!!!

Ive owned one for 8 years. We sweat profusely in bed so we can never get comfortable. I think the foam chemicals are why I've been sick for so long.

Bought a tempurpedic cloud supreme breeze mattress a couple of months ago and soon after developed a severe contact dermatitis. Used steroid shots and topical creams which did not resolve the condition. Suffered for over two months and finally researched the Internet and found the problem-the mattress! Stayed off the mattress and skin issues finally resolved in a couple of weeks. Turned in the mattress for a full refund minus shipping cost. Ordered another memory foam mattress from Loomandleaf with same problem. Obviously I am allergic to memory foam mattresses and will be returning this mattress shortly. Would be curious to know what is in these mattresses that is causing this allergy.

I also had the problem of my face swelling and my eyes swollen shut. It just got worse and worse until I finally looked like I was on the losing end of a prize fight. Allergy patch tests followed that showed an allergy to epoxy resin (it's in almost everything, but REALLY in memory foam). I got the mattress topper out of the house immediately and never had the problem again.

Last January my wife and I moved into our new home, and purchased a king-size memory foam topper from Costco. After two weeks of usage, my wife developed hideous red itchy blotches all over her body. Since then, she has visited her primary-care doctor and was referred to a dermatologists who treated her with topical steroids, antibiotics and Benadryl, to no avail. It is now six months after and she still suffers from itchy red hives, from her eyes to her kegs. Her doctors are stumped, but your messages prompted us to remove the topper, no easy task as we are in our eighties. Next step: to "visit" Costco for remediation. (That's a laugh.)

I just went through the same thing took me 2 years to figure ot out...its in every from bedding, shoes and bras....i cant come in contact with any of it...i have requested material data safety sheets trying to determine what chemicals are in these products and even though they are requred to file they are not required to provide to the consumers....i still have not received one MSDS...makes me really wonder what they use

No big surprise about all the allergies created by memory foam. The manufacturers KNOW it is poisonous for many. The best description I read regarding how memory foam is created says IT IS LITERALLY SOLID GASOLINE.

I bought "Therapedic" memory foam pillow last night from Bed Bath & Beyond. I woke up the the sensation that things were crawling all over my face, head, and upper body. This appears to be an allergic reaction to the foam, which smells like chemicals. It will go back to the store today!!! -ML

Bought a Tempurpedic pillow from the store around a week ago. The day after the first night I used I noticed a breakout to both of my cheeks and jaw area. I assumed that I was having an acne breakout, so I used everything under the sun to clear it, but nothing worked. Finally put two and two together and figured out it must be the pillow, because my skin care routine has no change. First day after sleeping with no pillow and my breakout already is starting to improve. Use steroids for breakouts.
