Question about difficulty sleeping

[emom]

Syl.....do you think they have a monitor going on you that allows them to see EXACTLY when you are finally asleep and resting comfortably?  I think they DO, and that is their signal for coming in to take your vitals.  As far as I can remember, they never once took them when I was ALREADY awake, only when they had to wake me to do it, lol.

Seriously though, I have had a lot of luck with the melatonin.  I've hit the right dosage - .75 mg, and when to take it - about an hour before I want to go to bed.  And I am sleeping pretty well through the night.  As a consequence, I am feeling much better during the day.

I'm 4 years post op and I still have a problem sleeping.  Last night was horrific, had a brutal headache all day which continued all through the night.  I'm hoping to nap this afternoon.  Head is still pounding.
