Thanks for this message thread. I have been going crazy with not sleeping. I either sleep for a bit and then wake up every hour all night, or am out of bed for a few hours and get its bitsy sleep.

Then I will have the opposite happen to me where I will sleep 12 hours straight. (missing work as a result!)

I have the Tinazindine for muscle relaxant and for bedtime. I try not to take too many meds, but dr. has said 2 at night are ok. I have only take one tonight. It is 1:23 am, think I will go take another.

I also use soft music, and an eye cover, deep relaxation, breathing, feet elevated. Sheesh! I am a mess sometimes. Weird thing - every once in a while on those "short" nights (or are they long nights?) I end up feeling energetic at work... that's just about the day before I crash and sleep for 12 hours straight.

Wishing all of you a good night's sleep - we need it!

Aloha,
Jenny
