Hmmmm, I think I tripped on the ball you dropped. Relax? I don't think so... I work my midnight job on the weekends and only have a 4 hour turn around time to sleep. Not because the job has me scheduled like that but because I have another job, well, jobs. I have a performing arts studio and work there in the morning on Saturday till about 1pm then sleep with the help of benedryl till 5:30 so I can be at work by 7:30 and work till 9am the next morning. I leave at 9:15 to drive to a church about 20 miles away where I play the piano for the 10am service. The pastor always talks too long so I don't get home till about noon and again, with the help of benedryl, sleep till 5:30 and go through the whole thing again. I get off at 8am Monday and sleep from about 10am - 3:30pm when I get up and go to the studio for piano lessons till about 8. I try to get an hour nap before I have to be up at 9:30. The Monday night shift is only 8 hours so I go in later. I work at the studio M,T,TR, F, SA. My day off is Wednesday. I've been in PT for the past 3 months working on my neck. I "graduated" Friday with parting gifts of a t-shirt with their logo and a hug. I'm looking forward to having my Wednesdays back. I usually spend them in bed doing a whole lot of nothing but at least it's my choice. I love my day off. It will be nice to have it back; like an old friend.
I'll let you know when I get the results of my tests. I don't expect they'll find anything but it will be nice to rule out physical problems and just focus on the head ones. Thanks for caring and sharing, Tumnus. It helps more than you know.
