Sleep - Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy Message Board

Since sleep is a big problem, I wanted to let you know what helped me last night. I took 1/2 restoril (temazepam), 30 mg. I woke up several times but got back to sleep quickly. I'm new to this and trying to figure out what works for me. Oh, I also listened to a relaxation CD - never into that type of thing before. Maybe this will help some of you - ask your doctors. Hugs to all of you. Linda

Linda,

Thanks for the suggestions. sleep is a big thing with me also. I take zanaflex to help but my body is starting to get use to it.

Hi Lindaa,

I vaguely remember what that thing called sleep is

I have tried various meds without success and a lot of different relaxation techniques and nothing works. I tend to keep myself busy throughout the night, with the internet going, the tv on and a book beside me. I usually get a little sleep at around 5 or 6am for an hour or two. I seem to survive on resting throughout the day.

Take care,

Aly
