Thanks for the responses. Yes, I have sleep apnea & use a CPAP machine. When I can sleep I sleep more soundly with the CPAP, but staying asleep is the problem. There's also nothing more my pdoc can do because I already take 30 mg of Restoril & 2 mg of Klonopin before bed...that's quite a med arsenal, but I can't seem to stay asleep. I'm not whining - I just wondered how many others are dealing with this issue right now. Sleep deprivation often preceeds an episode, so I hope that's not what I'm waiting on!
