[too SHy]

I have the most horrific nightmares and the drug Prasosin did a lot of good. I had yelling and thrashing in the bed which is a bit unnerving to my family, but I don't wake up or remember. This is starting again. also right before i fall asleep I have a total spasm of my body, which hurts muscles. I have quit sleeping, as possible, and terrible headaches. what is this? I am getting quite sick from all this. Any medications?

I wake myself up screaming, saying things like "no" "don't want to" etc. The only thing that has helped me is Prazosin 3mg... but I shy away from taking it... cause the nightmares do come and go and it lowers my blood pressure which concerns me. PDoc wants me to take them all the time??? I have noticed that my nightmares are linked to anniversaries of traumatic events and triggers like smells, seeing something on tv/movie etc. but triggers aren't always conciously noticed by me... takes time to figure out what set me off sometimes.
I wish I had a better answer for you......... but I haven't figured it out myself
But you are definitely not alone with this...
