Also, we learned that you can lose your melatonin, causing sleep problems. And you can lose your seratonin. Both can be replaced with pills. 3 mg melatonin or more (over the counter) 1/2 hour before bed may help you sleep better. Check with your doctor, but these things helped my husband enormously. Good luck!
I am grateful for all the responses..
The cost of the datscan is somewhat irrelevant to me as my insurance (blue cross) has approved a second datscan...Is there anyone on this forum with experience in regard to a diagnosis of SWEDDS? Thank you in advance for your help.
