<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Thanks to all for your suppost, suggestions and feedback on the topic of sleep disturbance. Just wanted to report that last night, I followed the clinics advise. Stopped drinking and eating by 8:00pm. Unwound for about an hour before I got myself into bed, turned my clock to face the back wall and forced myself to not get out of bed when I awoke and would have normally arisen to go to the bathroom. I only did so once, acutally closer to morning and although I didn't feel some miraculous difference yet, I see how these suggestions could actually make a difference if done on a continual basis. I'll post an update in a few weeks when I see if my daytimne energy or sleepiness level has changed at all. Also, as a side note, I forgot to mention that while in the hospital my two gf meals consisted of: Breakfast- Two boxes of cereal- rice krispies and corn flakes - close but no cigar (both had malt) Lunch- said gluten free on the tag (and in parenthesis said "no cheese"- so I got pasta with chicken cutlet in it :( Fortunately I had brought a supply of my own "safe food" that I had stored in the frig for my visit. In the next week or so, I'll send an informative package over to the hopital food supply department or nutritional center- Who knows if it will do any good- but I would feel too guilty letting this one slip by. Remember, you can't put your well being in the hands of others because too many out there just don't know and it is up to each and everyone of us to help change that- for the benefit of those living with CD and DH or those who have yet to be diagnosed. It's easy to just say forget it, they'll never learn, but with our help and guidance- there may just be a chance! P.S. I have a friend who was just daignosed with Fibro malasia (I'm sure that is not the correct spelling, but I don't have a medical spell check. Any info you can forward to my PRIVATE e-mail [log in to unmask] would be greatly appreciated. Best Regards, Leslie-NYC
