I had to do a fasting blood test and I made the appointment for 1pm, the same time I dropped mum off and spurged afterwards with a chai! Go ahead and treat yourself, you deserve it as much as you need it!

No sleep as expected , But Im loading Caffeine layer after layer.. I have to run to the post office , then a telephone session with my T then gotta pick up medication and pick up a few food items.

Honestly the worse part of all this is I have to put on street clothes.. I live in baggy old Tshirts and yoga type shorts around the house, So wearing shoes and a bra is soooo damn much effort just to put on ... Time for more Caffeine pills.

Wow. I had a couple days where the new stomach med caused insomnia. Yeah that was a listed side effect that I ignored. So last night I didn't take the med and finally got some sleep. Weird mixed up dreams about an election. The GOP was represented by over muscled Bulls. There was like a caucus going on and the Bulls hired motercycle gangs to stand in for them. Then when they won the turned into Bulls and chased the females into barns. One lady folded herself into a pail and hauled herself to the ceiling by pulling on a rope. Weird and quite violent but I did get some sleep.

Tried to sleep, but it was super restless and I am wiped today. Just wiped. Ugh! Why can't I go to Walmart and purchase a new brain for $99.99.

I got about 5 hours today, Over served myself Xanax but I had no choice, Micro burst sleep is dangerous if I were to need to drive.

My FitBit supposedly tracks my sleep, but half the time it says I didn't sleep at all even though I do dream. I wonder if I don't get deep enough sleep. I am tired all the time.

I have done a sleep study, and it's not apnea.

I'm on three stomach meds and yes two of them interfere with sleep. I take one am and that one is fine the one I'm supposed to take at bed time interferes with other meds working plus cause insomnia so I stopped taking it. The thrird one I'm supposed to take with meals but it's making me nauseous so I stopped that too. I'll have to call my doc on Monday and let him know.

It will get sorted. I'm sure after the colonoscopy the doc will have a better idea of what to do. It's not far off. Thanks for careing

Sorry to hear about your med situation, Nammu. I hope you get some answers from the colonoscopy results.

Plus, you need to sleep because we need you to share more of your dreams with us.

I haven't been posting here lately because of my depressive sleeping (10-12 hours a night), but last night was a PITA with the fire alarm going off. I didn't sleep much because of it. It totally threw off my sleeping schedule. I also had a nightmare about getting stabbed to death, so that was *wonderful*.

I've dreams to report

The first one was the night before last. I was Stephen Fry, as a teenager. But the dream took place in the future. There was a shuttle UFO going between earth and the rings of Jupiter. Tons of obnoxious teenagers were hopping on the shuttle and doing teenager stuff and there was lots of oddball stuff that was normalized cause it was normal to have these things from other planets and moons. Then I became myself and the other teens thought it was cool Fry turned into an old woman.

I can't recall the second part of the dream or the one I had this morning.

It's after 5:30 and Im still awake. I even saw the garbage truck come about 20 minutes ago. So my new hand-me-down cpap mask is fitting great tonight and not leaking but of course I can't sleep. (I tightened everything that could be tightened.) Hopefully it will fit great tomorrow too. I'm starting to get hungry. Maybe I wont sleep at all. But now the sun is coming up and that won't help me feel sleepy.
