Hello I have been reading  all of the questions on the last few posts, you all have asked the questions that I have been wondering about. I have a hard time knowing what to ask. But after reading about the book,From fatigued,to fantastic, and your own vitamins,that I have been wondering,well asking In the wrong way, I guess, I asked,what do you people do to help yourselves,either waiting for a diagnosis, taking the bite out of the pain,or just feeling a little better. Today  was great reading. Platelet girl you have so much info, and thanks to Ivfrogs,and halbashes.  Hope your day gets better.  any other medicine for being able to lay down to sleep,I am exhausted, But I can't lay down.

Hi Jacqie,

I've read that doctors are 10-15 years behind in research.... so with these illnesses, it is my opinion that we have to arm ourselves with all of the information that we can get. Another challenge we have is that there are still physicians out there that don't even believe that these illnesses or real or that they are psychological !  

I'm happy that you are here and being pro-active ! We will always be here for you and help you in any way we can.

We are delighted to hear you are gaining some insight from the forum and its Members.

I take Trazadone and Xanax in order to sleep.  I suffer with RLS/PLMD and can't sleep without these medications.

I hope you can find something that will help you rest well.  Good sleep is very important with these diseases.

Take care and thank you for your kind thoughts.

Hi there;
   My Rheumy gves me a script for Restoril to help me sleep, but I really prefer using Advil PM nighttime aide. I take 2 of them and in about 35-45 minutes I am ready for bed, and I sleep all night. You might give it a try. Take care.
