Does hep c and me having cirrhosis play a part in my not sleeping?

Is there anyone out there

Hi Star, Sorry it's taken me so long to answer but for some reason Mail has been putting your posts & Glendas in my Bulk folder. From now on I'm going to have to check bulk instead of just emptying the folder without looking. Oh well, now on to your question ... Yes, you are not alone in insomnia. I don't know about anybody else but I keep dozing off in front of the tv & waking up an hour or two later not really rested but unable to sleep any more. It's really weird cause I was never able to sleep if there was any sound or light in mu bedroom, now it seems I can sleep anywhere but only for an hour or two. The doctors aren't giving

me anything for it. They don't want to add anything to the cocktail of drugs I'm already on plus I find mosst doctors don't want to prescribe sedatives to former drug addicts. I did learn self-hypnosis a few years back & it helps. There's a book that was recommended to me by my sleep specialist, No More Sleepless Nights - check your local library, it helped a lot.

I am not depressed, I just need some sleep, two to four hours is not enough. My deepest appreciation Star1956 whomeinnc __________________________________________________

Hi sielick, sorry, but I can't rememember your name...you know....sorry....... I am guilty of the tylenol pm syndrome too... I wiegh 240lbs and take three a night. I normally don't take them til 3:00am , when realize I'm not going to sleep, and eat them, and in about two hours I drift off, till sometimes 10:oo am!! I think it takes so long because my liver is functioning slower, with anything it has to process. Thats really good, sleep time for me!! But, the downside... the wanting to take a nap around 6:00pm and the process starts over...again. Tylenol PM is not good for our livers, and I know you know that... Aspirin is not good either, as it thins the blood, reducing clotting capability, and thats not good for us bleeders. I found this out when I was going in for surgery on my teeth, and had to reschedule because the dentist would'nt work on me, cause I would bleed too much. I have asked for sleep aids, but my

doctor is big time against them. Delsielick817@... wrote: I USE 2 TYLENOL PM...I TRY TO GET BAYER PM ITS MORE LIVER FRIENDLY...IT DOES THE JOB..I TRIED ABIEN ..RESORIL..ETC..THIS IS THE ONLY THING THAT WORKS..2 1 HOUR B4 BEDTIME
