What do you reckon I should do? Anyone has any experience? D:


Hi,

You don't really mention what type of sleep problem you have, which I would make certain to ask the doc. It helps to know. Have you considered a sleep study? Relaxation therapy? Reconditioning (not using bed to watch tv or with other activities such as going to bed on time only when sleepy)? Keep in mind that meds help (even the over-the-counter types) but it takes time to identify the traits of insomnia and find the best med(s) and dosage(s). I would really ask this doc for a medical history evaluation to locate where sleep problems may be a target, such as with your current health conditions, which you may already be in the process of finding such. I hope for you to get some zzzzz's real soon .

Oh, I noticed that you mentioned an aid (c-pap?) Doc is on the spot!
