Avatar n tn So sorry to hear of your struggle. I have been taking all those supplements too hoping to get my levels fixed from statin "therapy" and now I have found the imbalance has awakened a sleeping giant in me...an autoimmune response...I have graves disease (hyperthyroid) and graves eye disease...turns out many of the dificiencise caused by the statins put my system in imbalance. And so much for their great ability to reduce inflammation...mine is through the roof.
1703392 tn?1307450500 Does anyone know of a way to stay asleep while getting PVCs throughout the night? I was feeling them in the evening and took an Ambien about 10pm which put me to sleep. Around 3am I awakened from a PVC and tried to get back to sleep, but kept getting woke up by them about every half hour. Got up very tired today. Very frustrating. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Avatar m tn No ..the fact the you treated and did not eradicate the virus will have no effect on incresed fibrosis progression other than te fact that you still have virus .The way your liver is damaged when HCV infected is a very complex process dependant on many factors.
Avatar n tn I sleep with a giant body pillow already and I am just 18 weeks. It really helps me sleep through the night. To feel really good I need around 8 hours of sleep !
Avatar n tn I had an interesting conversation/experience with moss while comatose. When I was awakened my entire body was resonating like a giant bell. After six months of this I mentioned it to my brother in-law, an audio engineer. He had me hum it for him on several different occasions. Always the same. 110hz. I am an atheist. that being said, this has come with a slew of spiritual side effects.

Avatar f tn Altho I am looking frwd to the blessed occasion I also fear the exhaustion. W/ my dd I felt like a holocaust survivor I was soo tired and overwhelmed but hopefully this will be better. DH is so excited course he has no idea since this is his first....hehe.
Avatar f tn Recently I have been feeling down, I never want to do anything, I stop sleeping and I loose interest in many hobbies.
Avatar m tn They usually have a shallow sleep - mostly stage 1 and 2 - and are easily awakened. They also have trouble turning in bed, and i also associated with restlessness in bed. Sometimes patients may be awakened by choking episodes at night that are triggered by sleeping on their backs. These can be effectively treated by addition of dopamine agonist dose against prescription at bedtime. Patients of dementia with Lewy bodies disease have a high incidence of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behaviors.
Avatar n tn The event happened in daylight, there was no violence and the perpetrators fled. I felt no fear at the time, although some moments from the sequence that lasted about 15-20 seconds can't be remembered. Why would I feel unwell because of it?
Avatar m tn t really pain just felt strange. Around the liver area. Also I now have a sore throat again and have bumps on the back of my tongue. It also a bit white. Paranoid again I couldn't let this go, so I tested myself again with the finger prick test. It was negative. I have tested negative for weeks: 2,4,5,6,7 Now I am on the 8th week. My upper abdomen is doing better. It just feels firm now. I went to a doctor and they ran a whole bunch of test on me. I will be getting the results on Tuesday.
Avatar m tn had the ghost drop by last night, sunday, while sleeping. this has happened many times over the years. why it typically happens at night when sleeping i don't know. and no, when i finally can open my eyes i really do not see a ghost or anything, but that is what i call it for lack of a better term. what happens is i am awakened by the disturbing feeling someone or something is holding me really tight and i can't seem to move.
Avatar f tn The earliee you start the easier it will be later on. I have a giant pregnancy pillow that wraps around my body and i can use it to prop my stomach and many other ways along with another under my tummy and another under my head and neck abd one to prop my feet. Lol i sleep great aside from indigestion and bathroom trips.
Avatar f tn While sleeping on my back, my tongue felt like it was in a spasm and awakened me cause I had difficulty breathing. When I awakened I had to make a mental effort to stop the twitching so I could move my tongue. What could be the cause? I'm 65 years old, have hypothyroidism and severe allergies.
Avatar f tn No baby crying. But I had kind of like insomnia because I never got to a full state of sleeping. But I heard a baby crying, I know it. I don't think that is your circumstance either but thought I'd mention it. Do you have insomnia (well, beyond being woken up by these noises?)? Doctors are there to support you and it is my experience that many of them like a good case and a mystery to solve. They are science based--- remember that. Scientists like this kind of thing!
Avatar n tn Okay basically, i'm 15 and i can't sleep alone. Most of the time i sleep in my sisters bedroom, but she is beginning to get annoyed with me doing it all the time! It all started when i watched my first thing about murder when i was 10. That night i couldn't get to sleep at all, i just kept looking around the room seeing thing. In the end i had to go into my mum's room (my parents are divorced) and sleep with her, with the lights on.
Avatar f tn It is very scary when this happens and I fear sleeping because of it. Does anyone have any clue to what this might be? Is this something I need to seek medical help for??
Avatar m tn Conclusion was possible plaque had floated to eve and damaged nerve. I have normal BP and Sed. rate not overweight and otherwise in good health. Had cataract surgery 2 years ago. Would like to know if exam could have caused issue as physician has had 4 other patients with same problem within few weeks after my issue and total of 10 patients in last 6 months.
Avatar m tn Hi. I just want to know why I only have 1 or 2 dreams per week that I remember. My roommate and family members claim to have dreams almost everyday. I've read that when we sleep, we have a lot of small dreams, but unfortunately I don't remember them...I just want to know why I don't dream as much or why I can't remember my dreams. Thanks!
Avatar f tn 2. I woke up yesterday with a bruise mark with a dark circular dot in the middle now i think my roomate injected me with a syringe with hiv blood cuz it looks like a,needle mark did i get injected with hiv? 3. I got into a bloody fight afraid i got his blood in mine am i at risk?
Avatar m tn Now the fact I smoked skunk means that I assumed I must have got a panic attack - but I had nothing like numbness, tingling, consistent fear or apprehension or 'feeling like I was going to die', which are common symptoms (or so I've read). I simply had the very unpleasant experience of feeling a massive adrenaline rush surge through my body every time I'd try to sleep (my body would also jolt as I fell asleep, as in my limbs would kick out suddenly).
Avatar f tn In the mid of the night, I wake up to the feeling of vibrations/shaking of my body and the bed, my eyes have to be open becasue i can see but cant move them, ill have a major feeling of fear for a couple seconds, but cant move a bit....then it will go away and i feel exhausted, dizzy and just icky all around. and Im tingling a lil after it. I thought at first this could be sleep paralysis, but im not seeing creepy things or anything like that, just my bedroom. Could this be seizures??
Avatar n tn I should have mentioned that the episodes you describe are night terrors and these will lessen in frequency. She is very young to be in a toddler bed, but your description indicates that 'the horse has left the barn' in that regard. If you have no option except to continue her in the toddler bed, stick with it and do not permit her to be in your bed. That will create a 'monster' you do not want to create.
Avatar f tn I normally go throught the night with 2-3 hours. Sometimes I wish I have more than 24 hours a day so I would have more time to accomplish my tasks. The only time that I slept well was when we were on vacation..( near the beach). My pattern of sleep has changed for about 7 years. I usually got up with a bad headache and neck pain for a while..Recently my doctor prescribed Zestril 10mg once a day and it does the job; I do not wake up with headache and neck pain.
Avatar f tn Then there are nights like tonight where I dose for a few seconds even though I’m exhausted. I wake panicked heart pounding. Then I start pacing I want to go outside. I need sound, sometimes white noise works sometimes tv works, nightLight. I usually play a game to calm me. I sometimes wake up extremely warm. I’m getting about 5 1/2 hours sleep. I haven’t been “normal “ since my surgery. I’m scared to fall asleep. I’m afraid of sleeping. This has me nervous because I just want rest.
Avatar m tn It is getting rather desperate. The weakness and shakiness can last thru the day if I just give sleeping on my side a try. I have a loop monitor for my heart but it shows a speeding of heart but it’s sinus arrtyhmia. I must find a doctor who takes this seriously. Very disabling.
Avatar m tn Sorry I can't give any direct help, but what you say makes me think a sleep test, that includes apnea testing (maybe it always does) would be the safest course forward. Have you tried to check you heart rate when you are awaken by a jolt? If you HR is low, you need to establish what that is for you personally, say 60 bpm or less I'd guess you didn't stop breathing... but then as confessed I don't know anything about what "speak".
