Ok....so I go see my family doctor today! See if I missed something here....He walks in the little room, and said I didn't look all that good! hhhmmmm..I WONDER WHY?! :o) Good Grief! I can tell he's not a rockect scientist! I have bags under my eyes that are packed and ready to go! No kidding! lol And I don't look good.....aaawwww why not? :o) My mom and I tried to figure out the amount of sleep I have gotten since Saturday.....about 7-8 hours! So, been to 2 doctors this week for the exact same problem....and one of them is my "sleep" specialist! How about that! :o) Nope....the medicine he gave me didn't even do anything...my body laughed! :o) Since his office happens to be right next door to the doctor I seen this morning....I went over to let him know this. These pills are so small....when I try to get one out of the bottle...they get stuck in my finger nails! lol :o) I can't even feel them in my mouth! Ok, so he gives me another script, I get it filled and my mom helped me with getting undressed and stuff for just in case that these new pills just might work, and work fast!!! Whoo now! I've been waiting for hours! And nothing again, and I even doubled the dose! Geesh! :o) I honestly think that I've been a good girl through all of this, and all I want is to sleep....thats not that much to ask for! Or is it?! lol :o) My pain is even worse then before....which I didn't think could even happen....but I should never assume that one! Whew! Soooo...here I sit, eating my xtra chedder flavored goldfish crackers, and my water! mmmm mmmm! lol :o) So....I'm wondering what do I do now? Good Grief...I can't go on like this for much longer! This morning I don't know how many times I almost tripped down the stairs!...uh...hmmm! Nah! lol :o) j/k Can I ask for 1 full day of sleep please? Ok, thank you! :o) Only in my dreams...lol Noooo, I haven't had any of those either! lol :o) Ok....either back to playing games on Pogo, or to sit in my nicely made bed, and watch old movies! Hard to chose from! lol NOT!
Thank you all for your very supportive comments and God bless all of you, and thank you for being here for me when I just needed to talk! MUWAH! Love ya` all! :o)
P.S. I think I'll look up the most hours that any human has stayed awake!

Lisa, Awwwwww I hope you can get some much needed -sleep soon, you are much stronger then I am, Love You Lisa P.S. Enjoy CSI tonight !!!!!!!!
I do hope you'll be able to get some sleep soon, sometimes I'm so tired I feel I could sleep till Christmas but I'm awake again three hours later ready to go, then I'm tired before I even get to work! I'm praying your pills will work otherwise you'll be so run down, lack of sleep is awful, people who have never suffered from it don't realise the benefits of it.

I wish you lots of sleep and a "feel good day". : ) Hugs and GBU, Shelly
I have these storms of emotion that might keep me awake for three days in a row, but I have used all kinds of methods to relax. The deep breathing for 12 breaths and then relaxing each part of my body from my head to my toes was something I would do to make sure enough oxygen was going deep into my lungs. If it is not that tends to cause agitation. I am sure being guest editor this week has stimulated you probably at a time when you were suffering from sleep loss. You might promise your body that you are going to completely relax in a few days and enjoy a long rest. I was startled again when you came on at 12 am almost as I posted my entry. You are so sympathetic and sensitive to the pain of others, I am sure that might keep you awake at times. Gerry GeHi6
wow...Im so sorry ur having sleeping problems that sucks
Lisa,
I am about in a tie for the sleep with you. Gosh, it get's old, I know. People who sleep even 5 or 6 hours DO NOT KNOW what it is like though. They have no clue.
Understand, I am sympathizing with you my friend. I just can't believe that they can't find something that works for you, and helps with pain.

I do hope you get some sleep. You have to get some good deep sleep.
I know this suggestion may sound lame, but have you tried regular melatonin at night?

Lisa, sas your sleep specialist prescribed Xyrem? It's a liquid med you take before going to bed. It's the ONLY one FDA approved for sleep disorders if you can't sleep. My insurance turned it down but after asking for 2 reconsiderations, I finally asked for an administrative judge hearing who ordered my insurance to pay for it. It's expensive. I had already tried their so called antidepressant, Elavil but it made me so sick, I couldn't do anything. I kept a diary when I was taking it and I quit taking it after 2 wks. I don't know if you could take it with your other meds, but please look into it. You can't go to any pharmacy to get it. It's so controlled, it comes from one central pharmacy which is mailed to you every month. Just a thought.
Hugs, Dana
