Hello insomniacs!
Me too, the most bedeviling symptom of not drinking anymore! I use Benadryl and Melatonin every night, which works some of the time for a few hours, anyway!
My worst problem is waking up with feet on fire and sharp pains! Neuropathy, and I am sure it is from many years of dousing my brain with alcohol! I wish I could find a good solution. I bought these cooling socks that have pockets for tiny frozen packs, but I hate getting out of bed to go to the fridge to get them! I take them out at bedtime, and they are thawed and not cool enough at 3 or 4 a.m. when I wake up and feel like I just walked on burning coals!!!!!
I am trying to find a blanket that will be cool enough but also warm enough to help my poor peds!
Anyone have similar probs? I have tried Gabapentin and it made me have an edema blow up! Lyrica is too expensive, not covered by Medicare.
Sometimes I think I should try to fry an egg on my soul! Or is it sole?
Help??????? Deanna

There isn't enough alcohol in the world to make you happier, calmer, prettier, more clever or less angry.
Only sobriety will help you achieve these attributes.
