Painsomnia

Have you ever experienced Painsomnia (the inability to sleep or rest because your body is in pain)?

If so, how did you feel?

Were you able to get it resolved and if so, how?

  1. Yes I experience this every cycle. I felt frustrated as having little or no sleep.I was completely exhausted the next day and often my body wasn’t resting like it should. Only now I have has surgery it’s become more manageable but occasionally still very bad. Hot water bottle/hot shower or laying on cold tiles on the Floor could only just ease the pain. Beside pain meds.it’s something unfortunately u live with.

    1. I’m having this right now and can’t figure out how to sleep either

      1. I have the same issue, my muscles are so tense due to constant pain and discomfort, I feel like I get so sleep or rest at all. I haven’t had surgery yet, but I’m really hoping it helps with this symptom as well as my long list of others.
