Hi Linda, I am so sorry you cannot sleep, it seems a lot of us are experiencing this at the moment. I have been up since 4am and need to be out by 9 too. I don't know if this will help, but when I don't have Hospital appointments , I take Omega 3 fish oil 1200mg. They help me relax, and get some sleep. I get them from Holland & Barrett. Just a thought, may help. I hope you get some 💤💤💤 soon. Take care.x

Hi Linda and fellow suffer's I have hope ... My prof gave me melatonin two weeks ago and I now get mostly good nights proper sleep pain still bad but what a relief to not watch the wee hours creep by hope this helps.

Hope you managed to get some sleep I am like that mist nights so you are not alone in this. Last night it was the pain other nights well I just don't know what causes it, just lie there listening to my MP3 player or at a last resort reading in of tiring myself out enough to get a tiny nap or two hope you managed to get up and out okayx

Sorry you are not sleeping. I suffer too at one point it was very bad. Sleeping tablets didn't help at all. I get the odd night now but at least I'm getting 6 hours sleep a night any less and I'm like a wet rag cannot function. Since wearing the Butrans patch slow release pain medication my sleep has improved. I do get breakthrough pain and take 1 CoCodamol which usually does the job. I take Ipuprofen for inflammation. I have multiple problems including Fibro. By far the worst debilitating pain I have is from my lumbar spine - spinal stenosis. It is very difficult to deal with long term chronic pain just a spiral of pain and lack of sleep.

I do hope you find something that suits you and your sleeping pattern will settle down in future

Hope you got there. This is me regularly now, no matter what time I get up and despite 100mg Amytriptaline I don't close my eyes before 5am but oddly enough, given the choice I can just get into bed and go to sleep in the daytime! I iften leave the light in at night as I seem to sleep better with light ???? Hugs x

Does anyone with fibromyalgia feel better in the sun thinking of moving to warmer climate can any one tell me what disability benefits you could take fed up with the PAIN xx

Hi savanarian2008

I have read many posts from members who have had their symptoms reduced whilst on holiday in the sun. However, I am unsure if this is just a case of being away from the humdrum or a real improvement?

All my hopes and dreams for you

I'm sorry if this depresses you but sleep is not something we get .If I ever get 2 hours sleep its in small spaces and very restless,I have many many night s with nothing ,I'm so glad I don't have to work because I do t think I could I'm so sorry for you ,why not try a over the counter remedy but check it's safe with chemist first if you are on other meds ,it could be dangerous Last night my leg and ankle hurt so much and my bottom which I couldn't reach to put cream was aching like mad ,so had to wait for hub to wake up so he could do it.I then got half an hours sleep. Hope you sleep really well tonight .Sending a gentle hug .x
