Sorry you are having trouble with sleep. I did, because of severe stress and pain. I have had 9 surgeries in as many years. I take a very low dose of xanax. I don't even take it every night. Those nights I had trouble with pain,
well I have to admit, this really helps. I hated to take a medicine, but I deal with pain better when I am rested. Tell your PCP exactly what is happening and keep a journal on the pattern of your sleep, when and how much to show him. That will help him make a decision on how to help you. I do wish you better dreams and sleep time. ginnie
