Well, just when I thought my sleeping issues were somewhat under control, I'm having major troubles again. I have been barely been sleeping the past few days and today, woke up at 3:30 am.

I don't know if it is just the pain is worse or the meds are not working or something else.

I do know that I'm sick and tired of the stupid cliche advice everyone else keeps giving.... Oh, you have to be more active during the day and you'll sleep at night. Try some warm milk. Keep your bedroom cool. Is your bed comfortable? (Yeah, right on that last one. There is no such thing as comfortable. A good bed is simply a bit less pain.) My mother actually suggested yard work. Hello, arms don't work, no strength, still recovering from my broken leg. I don't think so.

But all of those people who never went through this just want to give you their little tips and it is so terribly freaking annoying! I thought I used to deal with it pretty well, but lately, I just want to scream. Anyone else?
