Has anyone noticed nightmares? Since my dose was increased, I have been having horrific nightmares to the point that hubby can't wake me up. It goes on for over and hour and I am thrashing, crying out for him, and when I wake up I have been sobbing for over 20 minutes until hubby has reassured me and it was a dream.

Hey pepper,
For me it was Neurontin that caused horrible and vivid nightmares.

Hmmm..no neurotin but I do take cymbalta.

Hi there diet, I think you might have nightmares after you chasing your cane in the water !!!!.

Must say I havent really noticed nightmares, but what I have noticed and posted in the FM board is like this body jerking. My foot might take a jump or it could be my arm, its like this sensation of falling that you would get the odd time in your sleep. Only I get it about 20 times during the night. Or one big jump of my hold body like someone but jump leads on me. Also i used to suffer alot from the cold, I now find my body temperature is much warmer.
Dont mean to steal your thread but wondering if anyone has come across this body jumping, as it is driving me spare.

I hope the nightmares die down, the one place we go to get sleep and relief is now suddenly at us............... is there an let up !!!

Take care and mind yourself.
