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?

- SisterMemberI've been trying to keep them warm. 4 left if I can go the distance - apparently the next one is the magic number so I'm hoping that I can have that. They may give me a week off if necessary.
- onemargieMemberHey @sister. Keep those hands warm that’s what helped me. Have you seen the physio ? Mine was great with advice to help the neuropathy in my hands and also had a wax bath there to soak my hands in it was bliss. Keeping them moving helped too. Painful at first but got better. But I heated them up first. Do you have an electric blanket or get a hot water bottle to help warm them up. When’s your next chemo and how many do you have left ?? Big hug. Margie xx
- SisterMemberHope you got to sleep, ladies. Tired as but I'm awake now - neuropathy's getting worse and I can't keep my mind off it.
- Kiwi_AngelMemberThat’s not good - at least I have had 4 hours. Don’t want to take a sleeping tablet as I haven’t taken one before and don’t want to feel worse when the alarm goes off in 3 hours :(
- SoldierCrabMemberNot even got to sleep yet!
- Kiwi_AngelMemberThis is so not becoming enjoyable - can’t remember the last time I had a good sleep - I think endone could of been involved and even then I still woke up during the night. Makes it very hard to get through a long day at work. :(

- RomlaMemberAm thinking of getting the knitting needles over here in the Hills myself @ Zoffiel
- ZoffielMemberFetal sleepers unite @JJ70 It's freezing here, -1 Last night, -3, -4 the next couple of mornings. I'm a knees to chest sleeper when I am unhappy which means the end of the bed is like siberia
