I just posted about getting a new mattress, but it will be several months before we can do that. In the meantime, can I do mattress surgery to repair the huge sag in the middle of my bed? Does mattress surgery just fix firmness/softness issues, or can it fix a sag. We are desperate to get a better night's sleep. I briefly looked at the mattress surgery stickies on the main forum page, but it didn't look like the fix was for sags. Thanks!

Thanks for your advice guys! Upon further inspection, it is not a pillowtop (my other bed is - had them confused)..it's a Serta Perfect Sleeper. Looking forward to trying this out. I'll definately take pictures and post!

Great! I look forward to your experiment! I'm also pretty confident it will work out for you. Springs, especially with lots of padding on top, probably have not worn out, unless someone jumped on them a lot or something... but then again, if they're old... well, good luck!

If you do post pictures, please start a new thread "My Serta Mattress Surgery" or something...
