I did use herbal sources for a good while doing Yasko maybe I should try some Nettle again had trouble finding it last time I looked I think, quite shot away at the moment, had one night where I only got 1.5 hours sleep for no reason I could fathom and another with just 3 hours, this was before the seizure, so should probably wait till my brain is back on board to make decisions
