Dreaming of sleeping through the night???

By Sdile Thursday, June 30, 2011

I have several heath issues ( Im sure some of you have seem me on other groups) and I'm on a enough meds to knock a horse out!!!  really no joke, even to the point I have tried to cut back thinking it was to much and my body was just fighting the meds and if I did sleep I was getting up to use the restroom 2-3x a night so quit drinking after 8pm. I'm kinda at a loss cause when I dont sleep at night I then sleep most of the day then up all night and get my days and nights mixed up. I have several health/pain issues which dont help at all and at my witts ends. I just want to sleep and live a normal live and im learning quickly thats impossible. Ive tried OTC meds as well. I have a very routine bedtime lights and tv off 10pm and still may lay there til 3 or so or if I do go to sleep Im up 2-3x and want to sleep all day or if I do get up I just have no get up and go its gone. Any suggestions. Ive cut back on all my sedative meds etc. I drink no caffeine, alcohol, chocolate, etc. I suffer from epilepsy,severe migraines, chronic pain, hyperlipidemia, fatigue, severe back/arthritis issues, insomnia, reflux...just to list a few and I'm on appox 12 medications,

desperately seeking help
