Does anyone have an answer?

[Guest guest]

> Hi Everybody,

> I have a quick question for anyone that can answer. Do any of you

get tremors at night? I get them when I am almost a sleep. My doctor

said yesterday that if I have tremors while I am awake it is okay and

need not worry about them. If I am a sleep when I get them, then I

need to have medication to control them! Right now worrying about my

back and will talk to the doctor the next time I see him. I did have

them terribly last night and they actually woke me up. Now I am

getting a little worried about what they can cause! If anyone can

give me information on this, I would really appreciate it.

Interesting question Dawn.

I've been having rather intense spasms mostly in my diaphram area,

not painful just strong in that they wake me like one would wake when

they dream of falling. It will happen some nights as many as 5 times

before settling down and I'm rarely fast asleep when it happens but

just starting to get relaxed. I can feel the heaviness settle in and

then I know its going to start and the more I try and force it not to

the more prolonged they are. Sometimes they happen in a finger or my

arm or leg but the most intense ones are abdominal. I have an appt on

Tuesday with my primary so I guess I'll find out more then. I asked

the nurse practioner at the pain clinic but the only advice she could

give me was that maybe it had to do with my sleep meds so she took me

off of them but they have returned and I dont take anything at night

currently. I sleep well so Im not even worried about that, its just

getting settled at night and drifting off before they start.

Let me know what you learn Dawn and I will fill you in as well.

Hugs

Donna,

Thanks alot for your help and if you do get any info, please let me know. I will also do the same for you. Today has been awful. It is raining and is very cold outside. I also recieved a phone call earlier that I have to go and see another IME for workers compensation in early November. I spoke to my attorney and he is going to check into it for me considering this will be the third time I had to see one and yet to have any treatments for my back!!! They all make me crazy and I told my lawyer today that I have yet gotten any help for my back and I am in agony!!! I hate this being all about money and would like to have an insurance company that really cares!! Do you think that will ever happen? Well want to quickly finish looking at the mail and need to go out for a while! Take Care and LOL! I did think you were a nice person by the way! Best Wishes!

That stinks Dawn

I'm still waiting for an answer on my IME that was done close to a

month ago, no one seems to have a copy of it and Im having a real

hard time believing that the Dr who did it hasnt had it typed up yet.

If thats the case the person should be fired! I have called every

week for the last 3 and havent gotten anywhere! I am going to call

the UR woman yet AGAIN tomorrow....I just want to be treated and I

dont think Im asking much am I?

I feel your pain and aggrivation Dawn, maybe someday people will

start caring...Ya ok..thats a pipe dream LOL but hey cant fault a

person for dreaming!!

Many hugs

Donna
