Sleeping pattern disorder. Update

[Mog06]

Thought it might be interesting to give update. Operation 2Nov 21. Initially disturbed by hallucinations but they have passed now. Sleeping pattern is still major problem. Lucky if I get a couple of hours sleep in 24 and as a result I’m seriously sleep deprived and feel I’m losing the plot. Trying melatonin but it doesn’t work for me. Anyone been in these dark zones before. Any interventions.

Dear Mog06

I feel for you as I remember going through a similar situation.

I was told that this was a very common thing after having anaesthetic for the operation. Not that the information helped at all.

My GP prescribed a sleeping tablet { sorry have forgotten it’s name } for only three nights but it was enough to get me back into a sleep pattern.

Many say that the situation changes with time but I for one was not willing to wait for that to happen.

I can get though most things, but take away my sleep and I throw my toys out of my pram.

Good luck, you are in my thoughts

Thanks for your reply. It does help to know that it will end. I think I’ll press a bit harder for some medication. Lack of sleep grinds you down.Regards,

Ross
