Methought I heard a voice cry Sleep no more!

Soooo, I've been awake since 1:50am. I suppose it's a good thing that campus is closed (again) today because of weather (again). This time it's not snow, it's an ice storm. You know, the variety is nice.

I've been having problems staying asleep (again) for the past couple weeks. I fall asleep just fine, but wake after a few hours. It's been especially bad the past week. Possible causes: lack of thyroid medication, increased job stress, general body fucked-up-ness. I have no idea. It sucks. I'm tired. I just can't fall back asleep.

Over the past three hours, I've heard two booms--transformers blowing? I sure hope we don't lose power. Or internet. Gonna be a really shitty day if we're stuck in a house with no heat or connection to the outside world. Especially the power, though. Damn.

Maybe I could fall asleep now if I tried. Get a couple hours in before my body clock tells me it's time to start the day.

Ha!

I'm happy to hear you're sleeping better, though. Really!

Ugh. With that and your other symptoms, maybe you could ask Dr. Khosh about progesterone supps? I know you're doing the estrogen-blockers, but if your body is slowing down on progesterone production, it could be causing this insomnia and crappy periods.

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll bring that up with him when I see him next month.
