Although not all consumers are affected, some may have an allergic reaction to the chemicals used to make the memory foam.
Allergies are the result of the body's autoimmune system over responding to a perceived biological threat. This can result in itchy ears, eyes, nose and throat and can even result in nausea and vomiting. When these symptoms suddenly appear out of nowhere, few attribute them to the new bed they just began sleeping on. The best way to determine if your symptoms are a result of your new bed is to move the bed to another room or outside to see if the symptoms reside.
If you've just started having symptoms, don't assume it's the bed. If you don't have another place to move it, try sleeping on the couch or on another bed in the house to see if you find any relief from the symptoms. You'll want to do this for a couple of nights at a minimum. Make sure that you and anyone else in your home does not come into contact with the bed. Even if they aren't having symptoms, if someone else were to touch the bed and then give you a hug, they could be transferring the irritants to you, which would make your symptoms continue. To truly determine if it's the bed causing the problem, you have to make sure that you have absolutely no contact with it through direct or indirect exposure.
If after limiting your contact with the bed you still experience symptoms, a visit to your physician is in order. Conversely, if you find that all symptoms stop with removing exposure to the bed, you could just be one of those that doesn't tolerate the memory foam used to make the bed and you're no doubt suffering from Tempur-Pedic allergies.
Unfortunately, you'll have to look at other options for mattresses so that you can get a comfortable night's sleep. Not all mattresses are made the same way and there is a mattress out there that you will be able to tolerate.
If you have been having physical issues with your new mattress and need to find one that you don't react to, do a search on the various models and see if there's one that suits people with allergic sensitivities. Most people who have had a positive experience are happy to share their success with others. If you've had problems with your Tempur-Pedic, allergies could be the culprit. There might be another memory foam mattress out there that you won't react to and you can still get the comfortable night's sleep that memory foam offers.
