Hi Barb

 

I would be grateful for more information about the sleep system that you use. I too have M.E. with Fibromyalgia and I am having a bad time at the moment with disrupted sleep patterns

 

I live in Europe so I hope that this is available here

 

Regards

Marion

I used to have the insomnia that went along with fibromylagia. It used to take me several hours to fall asleep, and when I finally did fall asleep, any little noise or movement would cause me to wake up again. I was not getting into a deep,stage four sleep. It was the part of the cycle that was causing the aches of the fibro.

 

For the last 6 years, I have been sleeping on a sleep system that has natural magnetic energy, and I no longer have those problems. The natural energy relaxes the body, When I started sleeping, the aches and all of the associated symptoms went away, as well. I also take a supplement with an evening blend of valerian root and lemon balm, which also contains calcium and magnesium, which are better absorbed at night.

 

Ambien should never be taken for long periods of time. It can be addictive.

Re: Insomnia

 

Melatonin works for me and I haven't had any side effects. I don't feel drugged the next morning. Try it - you might find it helps. judy <ramcd wrote: I have tried all the tricks to beat insomnia to no avail. Sleep is so important that I finally gave in and take one half of a 10mg. of Ambien.

Try Valerian Tea. When I had trouble getting to sleep I would brew some Valerian tea. One word of caution, throw the empty tea bags into the garbage right away, if you put it in the waste basket in the house, may have a wee bit of an odor. You will develop a taste for it.

Hi Judy,

I know several people (inclduing my 28 yrs old coworker and my 60 yrs old mom) taking PNT200 with great success. You can find it here: http://tinyurl.com/29ey9 You can click on Shop Online menu on top and choose PNT 200 to view the product info, studies and patents. That's why I allow my mom to take it.

 

Best regards,

David

Dr. Hoffer has been taking the orthomolecular approach to insomnia

also for more than 40 years. That is, vitamins and minerals. If you

have deficiencies in these, why use drugs or herbs?

It's not a quick fix, but a long time ago, I decided to try

self-hypnosis. Got a book, did the exercises, they put me to sleep.

For years after that, I could make myself instantly fall asleep

anywhere just by sort of going through a very shortened form of the

exercises.

I'm sure it would work for some. I can't even be successful at meditation.

Tried sessions -no luck. I have a mind stuffed full and can not turn it

off. Usually I read novels and that gets me to the sleepy stage.

UG June.. Valerian tea!!! LOL I can not get past the

SMELL!! Maybe if it was in capsules???

 

One other thing to try would be Dr Jeffrey Thompson's

Brain Wave entrainment cd's.. He has several in the

Delta (deep sleep) range. Gifted Gifted man!! Works

for anxiety too. For Anxiety .. try the Alpha/Theta or

Theta cd's.. All you hear is rain falling or soft

surf.. underneath it is a bi-nueral beat to get your

brain waves to follow.

They do have capsules, but the tea, you will adapt. It does work, but I do

stick the tea bags outside. Maybe it will kill skeeters.

Kava Kava has been withdrawn from the market in Europe because there have been several deaths from liver failure

 

If you can get it, I know that Lavender tea is deeply sedative (but don't try to prepare the herb yourself as you may get the wrong amounts and like many herbs it can be toxic)

Have you tried what Dr. Abram Hoffer, the father of orthomolecular

medicine, has been using successfully for more than 40 years?

 

Essentially high-dose b vitamins and minerals?

You can make a blend of essential oils using:

2 drops chamomile

6 drops geranium

3 drops lemon

4 drops sandlewood

use this in a bath before bedtime or add a carrier oil and use it as

a massage oil before bed. If all else fails I rub lavender on my feet

snd diffuse it. Hope this helps

Sky:

 

We try to focus on bodymind methods here (for obvious reasons LOL) so I'd

like to see recommendations be more direct than something you can swallow or

rub on, though if I had to, I'd encourage you to look into something as

benign and noninvasive as possible like aromatherapy rather than herbals,

which, despite their " natural " aspects, are really not so very different

from taking pharmaceuticals.

 

Two personal recommendations for CDs, though. My husband has had great

results with a CD called " The Eternal Om " for helping him zone out and

sleep, and also the Delta Sync Sleep System. I can go to sleep listening to

just about anything but my current favorite is a relaxation CD by my Medical

Intuition mentor Winter Robinson, called Yoga Nidra. It's available at her

website, the self-named http://www.winterrobinson.com

 

As I have sleep apnea, breathing exercises are great to help me relax to go

to sleep. Good " sleep hygiene " is important, and that means keeping your

bedroom primarily for sleep, avoiding things like watching TV in bed, going

to bed at a routine time, etc. Sometimes even changing the color of your

sheets or lighting can be helpful, or darkening the windows. I worked night

shift for around ten years, so I am familiar with a circadian rhythm that

definitely marches to a different drummer. Once you learn how to " trick "

your body into full cycle sleep, it makes shift work and travel a lot easier

on you.

 

Good rest to you, and I look forward to hearing what other people might

recommend.
