Who else can't sleep?
Sitting here at 4:15am (CST) after trying since 2:30am to go back to sleep and finally giving up, yet again... Wondering who else is out there this morning, and most mornings at this time?

PS Movicol is used in nursing homes for bedridden patients who develope chronic constipation thru inactivity.
I know this sounds daft but my GP told me to drink more water and walk and he is right it makes a difference - I realise walking may not be possible but make sure you drink lots of water.I watch my diet like a hawk to ensure I have plenty of fibre eg salad vegetables , grain bread , rolled oats for breakfast . I also found 2/3 Kalamata figs daily keeps things moving along - I guess prunes / dried apricots are similar. I am more sinner than saint with food - chocolate and ice cream are serious addictions - but I am also careful to minimise constipation by dietary measures before I turn to the Movicol.
