Trazadone gives me a few hours of sleep. I used to do a combo of ambien and lorazapan until it stopped working for me. I inherited my great aunts insomnia and to tell you rut truth it sucks. Even my bi pap machine does not put or keep me asleep.

I have " sleep maintainance disorder"...I can't maintain rem and yes it sucks.It's an inherited disorder...all my kids have it. Sleep disorders also make it harder to lose weight I guess. I found the clap unbearable.I got so dry!

I'm hoping that losing weight resolves the sleep apnea.I gave up on the machine after 3 months...the sleep apnea was new...the other disorder I just live with. I've had it since I was about 18...right around the time sleep patterns change. I usually get tired again about 8:00 am but try not to nap.

I hear you. I've had sleep issues all my life. I was diagnosed with the apnea when i was in one of my thin stages, but i rarely wear the mask at night because air fills up my stomach causing bad tummy pain. It's not that i have allot of apneas I'm a shallow breather.

When they did my last study I had spneas during rem...but then I woke up anyway. This was at my HW of 297...today I'm 257. I'm sure another study is in my future. They seem to do one on me every five years or so.

Insomnia happens to me every few nights or so. If I don't fall asleep before my husband, forget it! I'll be up all night listening to him snore and spit and sputter! ;) I even thought about sleeping in the spare room, but he said I better not start that! Some nights I sit up and read the whole night and then go to bed when he gets up for work. Then the whole day is thrown off , and then the night as well. Trazadone makes my legs jump, and I'm so used to my vicodin, for back pain, that it doesn't make me tired like it used too.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
