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?
Okay, ladies. Not definitive because it could have just been sheer exhaustion... Second night of Melatonin. I kept falling asleep on the couch while I was waiting until I should go to bed after taking it so eventually gave in around 10pm. I woke up hot around 1ish and went to the loo. Went back to bed and back to sleep until about 3:30 - that time I was cold so covered up. Woke up again around 4am but too lazy to get up - did so around 5am as I was getting uncomfortable.
@Sister @kmakm So sorry to hear the chemo makes the vino taste bad - my husband said the chemo made everything taste metallic back when he was on it in 2010 ..... it will be interesting to see if the lasts!!
All the best to all those still struggling to sleep ..... it sucks!! :( It may be me again, soon! :/
@arpie Congrats Arpie on the improved sleep! I'm like @Sister, wine still tastes absolute rubbish to me. My tastebuds are not yet back to normal. I was drinking too much in the two years before my diagnosis, to cope with stress, so it's probably a good thing wine tastes like something you'd find in a budgerigar's cage!
