Can't sleep again

Illustration for article titled Cant sleep again

It’s approaching 6 am, the sun is coming up, and I’m still wide awake. I did get an hour or two of sleep earlier before stomach pain woke me up and I called off yet again. This is getting old. My oncologist doesn’t seem concerned about the insomnia, but I am. I do have an appointment with my PCP next week and hopefully we can find a solution, although I don’t know if it will involve more drugs. I’ve had some weird experiences on Ambien, and Benadryl just makes me dopey for hours after I wake, something that’s not good in my line of work. Mabye there’s something that will work better...
