Sleeping has been brutally difficult for me & the medicine seems to work but it takes 4 to 5 hours.
My brain injury was in December of 2006. I was in a coma for 32 days so it was rather serious.
Can someone PLEASE suggest something that has helped them sleep! Lunesta has been a joke for me too.
Any ideas folks??? ANY HELP would be greatly appreciated!!!!

First a question - Did you have a sleep study done?
You may want to explore Neuro Feedback to help with sleep after a TBI.
Certified Massage or Myofascial Trigger Point therapist can also help by releasing the muscles in the back of the neck.
Look up Neuro Feedback on your fav search eng.
One site I like is
