Hi Michelle,
If you can't sleep, I would try get up and crack on with the day?
I have early waking and pounding heart (low oestrogen still I think!) but if I lie there, tossing and turning, it drives me mad! Today i have the heavy body and feeling out of sorts, but I know it is due lack of restorative sleep.
I also have propranalol for anxiety, but have perfect blood pressure, so not touching it now I ve decided!
What are your plans for today Michelle?
Has the bleed descended yet?
CBD oil? Ever given it a thought for anxiety? Maybe a low strength one to start with?
Or those CBD sweets? Decent quality are also meant to be good for anxiety and sleep issues?
CBD tea can be good for relaxation, day or night?
Hope today isn't too bad for you.
xx
Hi Nas
Sorry onli just see this
I did get up and just cracked on and sat down when I felt like I was gonna pass out
The bleed is heavy but not as crampy as it was past few months so that’s a good thing
Today I went and actually see GP to do with the burning ribs and stomach
They have prescribed Rintadine to see if that helps
And also having more bloods and stool samples took
then will have camera down , because she concerned with the weight loss and me always feeling nausea dry heaving and gagging almost choking on food. I dont eat as much as I normally do as I can’t face it sometimes and I force myself to eat due to lack of appetite since this burning started & It’s been going on since June but I always put it down to hormones lol I’ve been taking omperzole for it but comes back and acid in throat.
She told me not to take the antidepressants yet as they could cause extra nausea , stomach problems and need to sort this one first
Said because I’m on warfarin she don’t want the stomach to become too tender and bleed as the tablets can increase bleeding.
She did say the proponol as a side effect of insomnia , but I can stop them as I hadn’t taken them for that long and was on smallest dose
She said insomnia can also trigger off aniexty said so it’s always like a viscous circle
I was so shaky & nervous when I got to the GP just as I was other day going to hospital , but I pushed myself in and told them I’m having a moment & I went in waiting room calmed myself down and I felt bit better before seeing GP

still shaky but not as bad as when I arrived
After I left I was ok madness lol 😂
So from a slow start & it was a productive finish ..
I’m now retired to bed & hope tonight I sleep ..
Hope your ok and have had a good day today
Thanks for replying xxx
