This sleep thing

I know I need sleep to heal. I know that I am grumpy...but it is so nice not to be dizzy...

I have been fighting dizziness for almost 10 months. That is a really long time. I even had to use my breaks anytime I stopped, because the slightest movement would set me off.

I'm in quite a quandary . I need sleep, and am so tired that things just don't work...but I like feeling a little bit like my old self. I tossed and turned last night again. I used to do yoga every day to help me sleep...but that is a no go when you can't move limbs without work.

  1. I just asked about sleep in an email. Should have checked here first! So frustrating! Praying, my friend!

  2. I've been meaning to let you know that I have followed your blog for a few years now and was saddened to hear of your stroke. Please keep posting. Every time I read your posts (You are in my google reader lineup) I pray for your recovery and your family. Thank you for being so real and letting us know how you are progressing.

    I'm assuming if you get plenty of advice, and I hesitate to mention this, but do you think your sleep issues could be because of a magnesium deficiency? I'm pregnant right now and noticed some improvement after making up some spray and adding it to my daily routine. There's some good info on it here: http://wellnessmama.com/3610/are-you-low-on-magnesium/#disqus_thread

    God bless you and I pray that you will figure out what is preventing your body from getting the rest it needs.
