Weird Question

BSWhip08 · August 23, 2008

Hi ALL -

I have a weird question. Has anyone had trouble sleeping since they had the band put in? I have been having so many bizarre dreams since the band - these dreams keep waking me up. They are all different and it is not a re-occurrung dream about the band or anything. I was always a dreamer - but it never bothered my REM sleep. I have been so tired lately and I know I am getting the proper nutrition and rest so what's up?? The only pattern that I see is this all started after I had my surergy (which was on April 29th).

Anyone else have this issue?

:tongue:

I've also had problems sleeping I use to take ambien last summer and since the band my doctor has put me back on it. However last summer I would take it for like two or three nights and be back on a sleep schedule but so far that hasn't happened yet. I've already taken 10+ since I got the perscription in mid June and last summer I would have 10 for four months. As for dreams I've always has weird ones but I remember them more often than I use to. I hope this helps and I happy to know that I'm not the only one experiencing this.

OMG!!! I am experiencing the exact same thing. It's not that I can't find a comfortable place, I mean a little because I use to sleep on my belly but what keeps on waking me up is the dreams. They are crazy type of dreams, I thought it might be the vicodin. I have also always been a dreamer but nothing like what I have been experiencing lately.

By the way I was banded on August 16, and doing great. Feeling beeter each day.
