I am so full of anxiety, my sleep or lack of has changed.

I take my meds, but I am staying up later and later, then it takes awhile to fall asleep and I still wake up early!

I know it is because of my upcoming colonoscopy procedure (which they are putting me under for) because I am 50 now, plus because I was in the hospital with the bowel obstruction, then a week later my MAJOR back surgery.

My p-doc even gave me Valium to take 3x a day, but I don't, I just take maybe one a day,then at night, guess I should take them 3x a day for anxiety, maybe that will help.

This happened before my other surgeries too. Dirk said are you on speed or something, as a joke, but that is how I appear.

I think it is everything that has been on my mind, plus all the upcoming things, it's just all getting to me. I don't feel depressed, the wellbutrin SR takes care of that, I take that in the AM.

At night I take, Trazadone, Lamictal and now Valium instead of the Klonapin, I tried even taking the Klonpin instead of the Valium, it doesn't matter.

I had no problem taking my meds at these times before.

OH, and my p-doc added a low dose of Cymbalta to take in the AM, but I was flying when I took that along with my Wellbutrin, so I just take the Wellbutrin, have to call her about that.

My pain med Vicoden, is another rev up, but not bad, it used to make me sleep, I am trying not to take them, I can take 3 per day, but I never ever do. Afraid of constipation and not being able to sleep.

OK.........any suggestions? Or do you agree it is all nerves and anxiety, as I think it is?
