hi Survivor,
Glad you got some rest! That sleep pain cycle is so tricky. I find melatonin helpful and sometimes chamomile or sleepy time tea. And so classic, someone gave me a very boring, heavily referenced history of cancer. I started reading it in bed. It was great! I could read it with interest for a few minutes then get bogged down in the details. After a while I could barely keep my eyes open....I think I'm gonna have to read it again!
I'm glad you are getting some pain relief with your new SCS.
Sending Healing Love,
Littlepaw
