Guest guest Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 for sleep i take 1mg clonazepam, 50mg diphenhydramine, 3mg melatonin. i also take calcium magesium and zinc before bed. and i usually take an epsom salts bath. i avoid all caffeine as even a cup of tea in the AM will keep me awake at night. pain used to be a culprit in my not being able to sleep. i'm taking low dose naltrexone for pain and it is better. my sleep specialist was the one who suggested the clonazepam because of it helping get to stage 4 sleep. ~dory Dory, What do you take for sleep? I have been on c-pap for about 4 months; unfotunately I still have such difficulty geting to sleep. And I'm still waking to urinate. I had hoped that with use of the c-pap that I would be able to get to sleep more easily and not awaken during the night so much. It HAS helped a tad, and I'm sure its better for my body but I still suffer a lot with not being able to get to sleep. And I just don't know if I'm going into stage 4 sleep since I don't have a noticeable decrease in urine output. Thanks, jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 i also recently read that Burgdorfer was infected when infected rabbit urine got in his eye. ~dory It is in the early part of the book where he talks about deer urinating and other animals eating the spirochete when they feed. If memory serves. jo > > thanks. > hmm..I don't remember that in the Lyme book, but I'm going to look for it. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 i did brain state technology brain training and was able to cut my clonazepam in half. i was taking 2 mg a night. i don't want to go lower because it calms my muscle jerking and spasming. the other is generic benedryl. ~dory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 I read in the Buhner book, page 157 that Zinc will bind melatonin, so it is best not to take it together. Take the zinc in the morning.
