Hi is this normal not to sleep very well with the pain as I’m new to all this and just wondered if anyone else gets it as I’m always up very early every day as I can’t sleep it’s getting annoying as by the afternoon I fall asleep in the chair and when you have company round and I fall asleep

Hi 👋 Yes this is my experience also and waking up in the middle of the night and not being able to get back to sleep 💤 again because of the pain. I have just adapted by sleeping whenever I need to, even going to bed at 5 pm sometimes. Good luck 😉 and hopefully you will adapt to get some good quality sleep 😴. Lynn

I would say the majority of us suffer poor sleep, pain during the night and exhaustion through the day. For some these can be flares and settle down for others it's become a way of life. x

Hi

Yes, I think a lot of us suffer from lack of sleep. I get an hour or less sleep per night due to pain. Take care Lynne
