Seems like I am spending a lot of time in this forum lately. Never a good sign.....but, as long as I'm awake, maybe posting will help somebody help me figure this out.

Since I got rid of almost all my furniture when I moved to my sister's, and I didn't have much money when I left, I took the mattress I'd been sleeping on at her house. It's a twin. Bad things happened to me in a twin bed, so it usually takes me a good while to get comfortable enough to sleep.

In order to relax even the tiniest bit, once I turn out the light and lay down, I have to rock myself for awhile. It sounds stupid, but it calms me a bit...and when I think I can handle it, I flip over on my stomach, as that's how I prefer to fall asleep. Here's where it gets weird.

I have this area in the middle of my back that, for some reason, always turns cold and tingly when I'm on my stomach. I have no idea what that might be a reaction to, but it doesn't ever NOT happen. It's a band about an inch wide right across the middle of my back that feels noticeably colder to me than the rest of my body, and weaker, somehow.

And, every night when this happens, all I can think about to make it go away is to take a hammer or something and just bang on it. I don't know what in my sick, twisted brain makes me think that would be a good idea, and I've never actually done it, but I do lay there and think about it a good bit.

By the time all this is over, an hour or so has passed, and I say the heck with it and just get up.

I have never heard of anybody else having this problem, but I thought maybe if I could figure it out, I could figure out how to solve it. Anybody got any ideas?

I don't have any words of wisdom but I hope you find out what is causing that. Just wanted you to know I was out here listening.
