I am hoping that some of you can offer suggestions that might help me.
I am 2 1/2 years out and still have tinnitus in my right ear that seems unrelenting at night time. I also have headaches and neck aches that interfere with getting comfortable at bedtime. I have other symptoms but they do not interfere with sleep. I have tried changing times for medications, making sure to have what I call significant wind down. No screen time, mindless television, I have a single ear bud for tinnitus distraction. It seems that 3-4 nights of the week I am finally getting settled at 4-5am. I wake up at 10-11 and end up laying down a half hour later and get up at noon-1:00pm in time for lunch. When I get up the first time I try to stay up but there are always symptoms headache, tinnitus, brain fog and my eyes ache so I medicate for whatever and it is easier to go back to bed. When I get up late I usually feel more 'with it'. The routines are not great I know. I sometimes feel whatever works should be the path. My family doc has put a referral in for a sleep psychologist. Has anyone ever tried that? Any feedback would be appreciated. |
