Pillow spray; seems to be making a difference

My Mothering Sunday present was a herbal pillow spray from thisworks.com. It's called 'deep sleep pillow spray' and after a week I think it is making a difference. I still wake up about 2a.m, and at 5, but then roll over and have something nice to smell until I drop off again. It can also drift over and help my other half to go back to sleep - he gets fed up with my jerky legs and arms which can wake him even when they don't wake me! Might be worth trying, even instead of chocolate at Easter!

Hi so glad your pillow works Had one years ago but found it gave mea headache , Lately I have taken to having the good old fashioned Horlicks and ovaltine before bed and I must admit I am getting a better nights sleep Still on 30mg of prednisolone which normally keeps me awake for hours on end Amazon kindle are making a fortune out of me , I put three spoons of horlicks and one spoon of ovaltine in my mug with a little milk and top it up with hot water It works I buy the light one tho they still have quite a few calories so have to add them into my daily intake Hope this may help x

Sorry to hear that...but one thing we all learn very quickly with this disease is that we are all different and need different solutions! I've been drinking camomile tea before I go to bed, but I know this doesn't work for a lot of people; including my sister.

Amazon kindle must be making a fortune out of all of us; I get through their daily deals at a ridiculous rate, though the odd one slows me down!

Avon also do one called Sleeptherapy Goodnight Pillow mist and it's regularly on offer too.

I find a lavender pillow spray is fab for sending me off to sleep. Although it's still very difficult to STAY asleep for any great length of time! :-(
