One thing that sucks about my medication... |
|
is that it makes me an insomniac. I haven't had any sleep in the past 22 hours. :(

Might I reccomend a little Valerian root extract or if you want something a little less sedating melatonin...

2. Check your temp., seriously! |
|
I have been on meds off and on since 1977, 150 since 2/01 alone and couldn't ever figure out why I would feel like I had a fever when my temp was only 98. {usually 97.3} Finally a Dr. realized that my thyroid wasn't working well, almost not at all, and started testing.
I have finally been diagnosed with a failing endocrine system and mercury toxicity poisoning. The Dr. hopes we have figured it out in time to save my life.
A bad thyroid or mercury poisoning are OfTEN misdiagnosed. Many symptoms of thyroid and poisoning mimic other disorders, including psychiatric, MS, et al. If you have diabetes and they treat you for cancer you don't get better.
I've had terrible side effects to meds over the years and can empathize completely with your insomnia.
I hope whatever you're taking meds for, you can find a med that is safe and effective with less side effects.
My thoughts are with you.
