Watching for Part 2 also. My husband takes Lipitor and several other medications for his physical problems.

I was sleeping very lightly in bed so when the nightmare first started, I could dive off the bed or get out of the way. After weeks of this, I was exhausted. Please tell me what medicine causes this so I can pass the info on to his doctors. Thank you! Just sign me "Exhausted".
