Sleeping with TN

When I heard that someone couldn't sleep because of the pain I wanted to share with them what has worked for me. It's a medication called Trazadone. One of those a night will put you into a deep, very deep sleep! You've got to be able to get the stress out of your life too. I also take xanax 2mg. 3 x/day.

Neurontin 600mg 4x/day; Tramadol 100 3x/day; Celexa 50 1 in the am. I take 8mg of dilaudad twice per day as needed for rescue.

Get some sleep! It's important to your survival!

Yes I agree---- it can be taken every day as an antidepressant

OR as needed for sleep

Most of us are lucky where we have no pain during sleep --- but sometimes need a "knockout" for bedtime pain

Good Sleep Reduces Stress --- Reduced Stress = Reduced TN pain in many cases!
