Long time member. Missing in action with 3+ years PF. The Beast made its return roughly 2 weeks ago. Until this week I had been able to keep
It at bay with O2 and ice. As of late tho I cannot.
Problem is that I cannot sleep at all. Not saying I can't fall asleep. But now if I doze/off I can't sleep 5 minutes without the beast coming right back. Suggestions? PLEASE HELP!!!
I just want to sleep. Can't keep going like this

Thanks Batch. I used the D3 a few years ago and it helped considerably. Haven't started back yet as I had been able to keep the beast at bay with O2 and ice until the last 4-5 days. But I will be starting back immediately. 
I have used the the imitrex right before sleep. And it worked one night. Now even that doesn't work. If I go to sleep, I will get nailed😩. Was just Hoping maybe someone had ideas that I haven't tried and may work.

Pfunk,
Sorry to read you being attacked again. I remember your posts from years ago. I think all of us here have experienced what you are fearing...afraid to sleep as the beast may attack.

The anti-inflammatory vitamin regimen Batch describes has proven effective for many of us, suggest you definitely go with that to help you.

In addition, Melatonin was suggested to me and others years ago to help reduce the intensity of each attack in middle of sleep. Might consider trying it.

As for how much dosage, to each their own. Some can handle more than others without being too groggy the next day. I opt the lozenge style that melt under your tongue like a candy opposed to the tablets.

Try it, cheap price of $10 bucks for a bottle of 200 at Vitamin Shoppe. 3 mg each, I usually take 5 of them, equals 15 mg nightly. All natural.

Hang Tough!
