SHIT, SHIT, SHIT

I am getting another.  OMG.  They're increasing exponentially.  And I want a nap which will just make it all worse...  TG for Linda Howell.  I am scared that I have to do this all again - 30 years now - waaaay too long.  Man, does it EVER end!  I cannot go into full throttle mode - that'll be IT! - JIm R Cry

I gotta sleep despite what I know it will do - agony.  But I can't sleep at night and it catches up with me during the day.  So, I can correspond anymore and maybe for a while if I wake up with it again...hope y'all understand.  Thanks.  Your support means everything to me - Jim R

Jim,

Try napping in a sitting position.  I have found this helps.  Woun't make them stop but the severity of the hit is reduced.

-P.

So let me get this straight - You now have tools with which to abort a hit, but you're dreading the hits as though you didn't have anything with which to abort them.

What am I missing here, Jim? If you've got the O2 - even though you don't have any preventative regimen - why can't you go to sleep confident that you've got what you need to chase the beast away in 10 minutes or so?

If he is anything like me, he will get woke up by a bigtime hit and the O2 will seem like it takes hours to work if you can get clearheaded enough to get to it.

O2 worked OK for me, but naps were playing Russian roullette.

Just my take.

You've overstayed your welcome since the day we met but it doesn't seem to matter to you.  No medications are your master, nothing makes you fret, it's a helpless feeling having nothing I can do
