Can't sleep
Hi all, hope you're well. Over the last 2 days I have had 8 hours sleep spread out in bits. This happens often. It's like my body is tired but my brain won't switch off. I've developed a new symptom too, my ring finger has gone numb and tingly on the tip since I've not slept. Not sure if I should contact my nurse I don't want to sound dramatic but maybe a relapse? If anyone can help with sleep etc I'd be very grateful. I've tried meditation but can't concentrate. TIA
rachel, and not sure if this answer is any help, I, like you, had the same sleep issues, now I tend to record TV programs and watch into the early hours, 1-2, by then I am really tired so go to bed and fall asleep quickly, if I go at 10 I am up at 2-3, I know this is not a medical solution or indeed a useful one but it works for me, good luck and take a read of my blog www.wholesorts.com there are answers to living with MS and also aimed to those who have no idea,
Thank you for that, I do put the tv on in bed on a timer, I listen to it on low but this just keeps my brain active. I usually have to fall asleep to a little noise as I struggle in complete silence. I will check out your link though:)
