My Lindsay also has problems with sleep...She was prescribed Trazadone for sleep, but was also taking cymbalta for the pain, but had a severe reaction, it seems the two should not be mixed. But, the Trazadone did help the sleep for her. Unfortunately, the cymbalta was helping more, so one had to be taken away.
So now back to melatonin and a good book.
Dawn what is 5-HTP?

I also used to have the same sleep problem until I had my first Ketamine treatment in November. Since then, I've also been taking Trazodone at night along with my melatonin and 5-HTP and I now sleep like a rock. It's truly been amazing.
I did try a bunch of prescription sleeping pills and OTC ones in the past but none worked. The trazodone is used off label for RSD pain and sleep. If you've never tried it, it might be worth a shot.
Happy Holidays,
