I too sleep only 2-3 hours. It is dreadful.
I am at a loss as far as advice., Just wanted you to know that you are not alone.
It does look like you have received good suggestions. I believe I will try them as well.
.I am so sorry for your pain.

Sleep is so important and can be so hard to get.
I mostly need zanaflex but I also take seroquel to get sleepy. A few medications seem to make me sleepy so I take those at night and some seem to keep me awake and I take those in the morning. Talk to your doc before changing but almost every time they won't care. I try to ask them in advance if it matters now but often forget.
As needed meds for sleep can be a godsend. Anxiety, pain, worry, and other things like a racing mind can keep me awake and sometimes I need something to target those specific problems.
Best wishes.
