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?

- SoldierCrabMemberMy Nurse at Onco ward had given me t hat suggestion it worked a treat for me.... as I had peripheral neuropathy and still do .... 5 yrs later... but at the start it was like zillions of spiders on my feet was freaking me out .... the stockings got rid of the sensation then I could settle enough to get some sleep
- Kiwi_AngelMemberThanks @SoldierCrab I do have those so I might give them a try. I always wear socks to bed - even in the middle of summer - I’m such a weirdo. They aren’t particularly snug though but I have a new pair that might be - I’ll try out your suggestions.
- SoldierCrabMemberKiwi Angel do you have your compression stockings from Surgery ? if you have already had it - if not a pair of snug socks
wear them at night it helped me to deal with the tingling /numbness - Kiwi_AngelMember@kmakm - symptoms didn’t seem to be as bad but tiredness lingering longer - I’m paying for having a fun day on Saturday
- kmakmMember@"Kiwi Angel" Very annoying. I had that intermittant tingling all the way through, and weird numb patches on my calves and the tops of my feet. All gone now I'm happy to say. Hope you're starting to feel a bit better in Week 2.
- Kiwi_AngelMember@kmakm very annoying when your stupid body starts to get get in to a routine that u don’t want it to. I have started to have restless feet at night - getting a little intermittent tingling/numbness.
- kmakmMember@"Kiwi Angel" Not precisely but I always wake up at least once somewhere between 2 and 4am.
- Kiwi_AngelMember@kmakm is that time becoming your regular witching hour?
- kmakmMemberOh three forty seven
Your hour is not heaven
I don't mean to yell
