Man this is getting rediculus! I have been having one heck of a time getting to and staying asleep! I dont want to take Rx meds and lately the only thing working for me is benadryl, which is horrible!
Heres what I have been taking: Melatonin 1-3 mg Valerian Root 1g Calms Forte 3 pill So I switched it up: l-Tryptophan 500-1g Gaba 200-400mg L-theanine 100-200mg chammomile tea, sleepy time tea, magnesium 250mg, zinc 25 mg (Mag and zinc are taken separate to above to minimize interaction) STILL CANT GET TO SLEEP!!! Supps/Meds: Stablon 3x day 12.5 mG All the rest are taken in the am Glucos/Chond (standard dose) Cissus 1.2g Beta Carotein 10,000 IU Astragalus 470 mg Omega 3's 12-18 g D3 (cholocalciferol) 2000iu DHEA 25mg Milk Thistle 200mg Multi complete magazimes acidolphilus B-complex I am also on TRT (testosterone) and last time I had my blood work done it was 267 (free and total) out of a possible range of 241-800+ I know low testosterone is associated with poor sleep, anxiety mood swings, depression, etc so that may be the culprit but I am not sure...I asked my doc if we could increase the dose and he doesnt want too, he is afraid that it will make me more moody, depressed, anxious, etc!!! I am certain that it will probably make my Quality of Life better! Im in my low 30's and there is no reason I should have the testosterone levels of a 50-60 year old man! (no offense to you older men out there) |
