Took my own advice lastnight

Wasn't well last night ,I felt a lot of pain then low mood because of it and thought,right!I'm taking bit of my own advice by forcing the get up & go thing! So I did,I got up,ready,and went around the block few times on wee walk,my pain levels were worse afterwards but at least my mood was higher,then I went to bed later for the night and thought Noway am I going to be able to get even two hours sleep but bonus I only woke three times !that's great for me,my pain levels are down the now and as James brown says,,,I feel good! Lol.

“I knew that I would, now 🎶” I slept 2 1/2 hours last night...I usually sleep 3! Although I don’t have pain, unless you count the RLS, I can’t sleep either! Very chopped up! Tired of it! A solution will come in time...🌺🙂🌺

Lol thanks also made me smile.yeah I've told Dr I don't want morphine that I just don't want to live a life addicted to pain meds,she then gave me alternative ,I still feel half the pain,but guess I'd rather that than sleeping my way through life as I have kids. Anyhooo...so good!so good!!

I try watching a boring movie to put me to sleep or sorry to say, reading a book. Works every time. You ever tried sleeping while sitting up propped up with pillows?

I am using coach pillows for my bed pillows in order to help me sit up while I sleep. It helps with my acid re flux. Ever tried the My Pillow brand pillows? I wonder if they really work?
