Sorry you had a horrible night. I am not worth 2c on those nights! At our
house we have 3 people who want to use the computer dial up connection, DH,
son, and me. So usually if I wake up around 2, I will check out computer
messages for a few minutes, then do other things until I get sleepy again..
DH says the SM noise wakes him up, so that means no sewing after 10. Hope
you sleep better tonight.
Barbara in SC.

Sympathies from another insomniac. It's made all the worse when dear
husband is sleeping so soundly! I now get up and do something useful -
read, computer stuff etc. If I'm not going to sleep there's no point in
lying in bed tossing and turning. I always feel worse if I get to sleep
late and like you I wake with a headache. It's better to be plain tired!

I've always been one of those that survived well for long periods on
less sleep than average. Never was an 8 hours a night person... Now
with the fibro, I need more rest but get less because of the pain, and
cannot sleep for more than 4 hours at a time. If I do, I wake stiffer
than ever! Luckily I seem to have inherited by fatner's ability to
sleep at any time of the day or night, with ot without lights on, so
when I'm not too bothered by the fibro, I can catch up. Trouble is that
lack of sleep exacerbates the fibro, so I sleep less and am in more
pain, so I sleep less well...
I'll up the pain meds for a day or two and try to break the cycle.
Thank you for the good wishes. I certainly feel in need of them right now.
I'm also going to try to catch up on some sewing related stuff today, as
a destraction. I may get the GMNT sewing.

If not too personal, what pain meds and strength work on your fibro? My
wife is s sufferer also and hasn't yet found the right one. Thanks
