Sleep won't come...what's going on in here?

[LeftyFingerPop]

Anyone have insomnia?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

1. My dear philboy...

No insomnia for me, just yet...

But it's only 10:30pm here...

I have to get up tomorrow morning for an appt. with my ENT guy, to clean out my waxy ears...

So I'll be going to bed pretty soon, I think!

I'm sorry you can't sleep, sweetie...

:hug:

[LeftyFingerPop]

2. Will you get the ear lavage with the warm water?

I love that! It feels good, as long as you don't have an infection...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

3. Actually, no, my doc doesn't do it that way...

The lavage always made me so damn dizzy!

This doc uses a nice gentle vacuum...

First he puts in a wax-softening agent, and then he vacuums out my ear...

Amazing!

Of course, it does get louder and louder as the wax is removed, but that discomfort only lasts a moment or two...

And then......blessed relief!

And he does it himself...

I am actually looking forward to it, believe it or not...

[LeftyFingerPop]

4. I believe it Peg....

I love getting my ears cleaned. Everything sounds so crisp when they are done!

Well, best of luck to you tomorrow Peg.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. Thanks, sweetie...

It'll be good!

[Lil Missy]

8. I'm an insomniac too. Very frustrating.

How you doin' Philboy? Anything in particular keeping you awake?

[LeftyFingerPop]

9. Hi Lil Missy

:hi:

I'm sorry to hear about your insomnia.

I am ill this evening, so that is what is keeping me awake.

[Lil Missy]

14. Funny story about my insomnia - well, now that I can laugh about it.

About a month ago, I had a rare instance of falling asleep on the couch at about 8:00 pm. A decent hour at last! At about 2:00 am, I woke up and headed to the kitchen to take my usual glass of water to bed with me. No lights, it was completely dark.

I have one cat that is always completely under my feet constantly. In my half awake daze, and in total darkness, I stepped on him. When he screeched, my immediate instinct was to lift my foot, to protect him. I lost my balance and fell flat on my face, injuring myself instead. And I fell HARD! Mostly on my face/eye, but my right side too.

OMG! The crash was so loud my mother thought the refrigerator had fallen over! She came flying out of bed. She flipped on the lights and there was blood everywhere from me splitting open my eyebrow.

I sported a major black eye for several weeks, broke a knuckle, severely bruised my right shoulder and hip, and ended up having to get them all x-rayed. A fracture noted in my eye orbit, so I had to get a CAT scan of my face.

That's what I get for finally being able to fall asleep at a decent hour. LOL!

Oh, and BTW, the damned cat is fine, and was not injured.

[LeftyFingerPop]

15. Oh no!!

And this happened only a month ago?! I'm so sorry!!!

Those injuries sound bad...and I know exactly how much a cut to the forehead/eyebrow area bleeds.

Gee, I'm really sorry you had to go through this. I'm glad the cat is ok! :hug:

10. I'm here too ...

:(

work 2nd shift, insomniac and too mad to go to sleep. Resisting the urge to write an angry email.

I hope sleep finds you soon.


:hug:

[LeftyFingerPop]

12. I hope the cause of your anger soon passes

:hug:

[auntAgonist]

20. thank you philboy

It's family related and won't be fixed any time soon. It's angering and heartbreaking at the same time. But, we forge on.

I hope you can sleep soon.

:hug:

[LeftyFingerPop]

13. I understand...

I'm too sick to get drunk, or else I probably would. Hope you get some sleep soon.

[Ariana Celeste]

17. thanks

i need it, got shit to do tomorrow. seems like everytime i got shit to do i cant sleep.

hope you do too :(

[DarkTirade]

21. Not lately, but I tend to have to deal with it for long periods of time when I do have it.

Sucks. A whole lot. Especially since I'm one of those people who can't function without a regular sleep schedule.

One day of insomnia can throw me off for days. And when I have weeks of it on end... it's not pretty.
