Pretty good last night because I was at the gym for 4 hours and then went to the Baltimore Orioles baseball game after that.
 
I never have a good night's sleep--another bonus from Parkinson's, thank you. I also disturb TCS with my night screams, talking, and thrashing (sometimes I hit him in my sleep). I wake up several times during the night. Oh, well.

I had to stop sleeping with my ex husband b/c he throw his arms all over the place and one night I woke b/c his arm landed on my face and almost split
my lips and just about gave me a black eye. Would talking a warm shower help you relax ? I had a client that had really bad arthritis and could not sleep very good , so her health aides gave her a warm shower before going to bed and it help her sleep a little better.

With PD it's not about relaxing. It's just one of those weird brain-related functions that goes haywire.

The only activity that helps me feel better is large-muscle activity, such as a brisk walk, using the treadmill or my pedal equipment, exercising with weights, gardening/yard work, or housework. Not the best activities at bed time. :giggle:

Thankfully, TCS is tough enough to bear it. :)

Thanks for the suggestion though.

I know of an exercise you and TCS could do together and it might help you both sleep better.
 
I slept good

I never sleep. I end on coming downstairs so I don't keep my hubby awake. He get's up at 5am. I have weird, crazy dream all night long. Wake up every 30 minutes. Tinnitus roaring never stops. I can't remember the last time I slept through the night.....if ever.

Sorry Reba that the Parkinson's is causing so many issues.

Tennitus sufferer here also....so again I exhausted myself before trying to sleep...had a good night's sleep last night for a change...the music never stops in my mind tho'.
 
so desperate for sleep I took zolpdin...get restless leg syndrome among other things
 
I don't exercise enough but I fell asleep while reading on the internet or Facebook. That would last a couple minutes or so every time. I tried drinking Pepsi or Thirst Quencher or ice water which help not to feel drowsy. I don't understand why I don't want to go to bed and am not comfortable sleeping in my own bed. I guess maybe it is because I miss my husband so much that his presence is not there with me anymore. I don't know. :(

Also, I have Tinnitus, too. The noises in my head is bothering me a lot. Oh, well, I try to ignore that. :dunno:

I'm sorry you don't sleep either. There seems to be a lot of us. My issue is tinnitus and pain most of the time. I'm sorry you miss your husband that has to be very difficult.
