Re: No more pain, gotta get some sleep, and what is morning stiffness anyway       10/03/04 11:57 AM Edit Reply Quote LauraSue Reged: 01/14/04 Posts: 4812 Loc: New York City Ruchie, glad you got a sleep mask and took a hot shower to help you sleep. Aleve helps a little but it's also an IBS trigger so I have to take it with Imodium and don't take it every day. Extra-strength Tylenol (or the store brand equivalent) is the best thing I've found over the counter, but you have to take it right on time every 4 hours (sometimes I even take it after 3.5 hours) and 4 times a day, because if you wait til you're already in pain to take it, it doesn't work as well. (Your central nervous system gets all hyper and won't calm down!) Also, Benadryl is an over the counter antihistimine that is also used as a sleeping pill. Again, buy the store brand because it's cheaper and take two about an hour before bedtime. It will make your mouth a little dry but you'll sleep much better. It actually helps you get the Stage 4 deep sleep that you need to heal and rest. I'm so glad you bought Fibro for Dummies! My personal trainer at the gym said she saw it in a book store and it looked really great. The more information you can get, the better you can manage the fibro. Good for you!! YAYAYAYAYAY, RUCHIE!!!!!!!!!!!! -------------------- Laura Keep it simple! Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
