This is about the only thing I like about this process. I LOVE taking naps lol. So now that it's a necessary part of my daily life I get to indulge in something and no longer feel guilty about it. I take anywhere between 45 minutes to a few hours. Sometimes I don't really fall asleep if it's a quick one, I just lie there and zone and that's good too. But regardless of the length I find that I have a harder time getting through the day if I don't nap and in fact it'll affect the next day too. So have a snooze and enjoy it! Cheers!

9 months post, and not needing naps anymore except on tiresome days. For a long time I took about 1 hour naps and they helped alleviate headaches. Keep your neck straight when you nap that will prevent more headaches and fog.

In July 2013 ran into a metal bar at a playground, remained conscious. CT normal. Headache subsided after a week. In August woke with thunderclap-type headache in right side of head, right eye was droopy. Ever since had electrical-type pulsating all over when falling asleep and during sleep. Strong muscle twitching occasionally. Chest pain in heart region, front left neck region, and left shoulder. Strong heartbeat noise in head and occasional weird noises in ears. Taking Gabapentin to control nighttime nerves. Other symptoms: anxiety attacks, goosebumps, fine motor coordination problems, sleep apnea, headaches/migraines, fatigue, unclear thinking. Update as of Jan. 2015 - almost all symptoms gone except for some tinnitus. Taking good care of myself except sometimes when I overdo it. |
