Thanks, Sue
Long time problem for me. What finally worked for me was a combination of Xanax, a tranquailizer and Ambien. I tried using nothing and had the longest and most miserable 3 months of my life. The nights lasted forever. The Xanax also controls my RLS so it is a win win situation. Been doing this on and off for about 20 years now and steadily for the last 7. Works like a charm for me and others I know who found just a sleeping pill ineffective. I had to change doctors 3 times to find a doctor to work with me on this. I now sleep soundly rather than feel like I am just laying there awake all night long.
