I take a magnesium pill every night and don't have problems with leg cramps.

I have had problems with sleeping at night due to pain, leg cramps, etc. There are times that I wake up during the night and I go back to bed. I am lucky if I am able to get a full 8 hours of sleep. I discovered that when I get cramps in my legs, I drink a full glass of tomato juice or V8 juice. It seems to help with the leg cramps. I also discovered that changing my diet by cutting back on caffeine also helps. When I get stressed out I knit or crochet before bed and it helps me to relax and meditate.

I can relate o some of this as definitely need to get up at least twice a night. I also have insomnia and night sweats and can only have half a sleeping tablet occasionally because of other drugs I takes do nothing for now get sweats because of same issue. I also have tinictus think it’s the side effects of the tablets which makes me miserable and depressed. I se a white noise machine to block it out but over the years doesn’t bother me as much ch. I hope you find some solutions that might improve your quality of life.

Try a white noise machine to block out unwanted noises in your ears when sleeping

@A myRAteam Member H , wow , good for you with the weight loss! I’m a somewhat petite female, so by looking at me, I don’t really fit the profile of a person with sleep apnea . But apparently my small palette, overbite, and other anatomical features caused me to snore like a sailor and stop breathing. Agree , the fatigue is huge, which is what prompted me to see a sleep medicine specialist.
