The night is so long…

I have an appointment in July to see a neurologist so, as of right now, I am on no medication. It is brutal. Often, if not usually, the spasms and constant need to move start as early as 10:00 pm when I am actually just settling down (or trying to) for the night. Then, it starts and I literally count the hours until I can get up at 5:00 and take my dogs out and move…the night is so long and so brutal and painful.. I just can’t cope.

Apologies. I guess this is just a venting post. I have read so many excellent recommendations from you all and feel prepared when I do see the neurologist but I invite anyone to relay their similar experience here with an absolute dread of the night and how seven hours can see a lifetime.

Much fondness to all.
