Its basically a problem related to brain whee brain does not respond accordingly and thats where it creates problem
i think you should try meditation for at least 1 hour ...
it will surely be effective and you will feel good ....

I'm on testosterone, progesterone, thyroid and DHEA replacement anyway. I say bring ALL the hormones to the party LMAO!

Seriously, I sleep fine without it. I take it for the same reason you do, and also for the antioxidant and possible anti-cancer properties.

I forgot to ask you this before, are you able to have "energy drinks" sugar free for example while you are on thyroid meds or does it effect the meds?

Some lady told me this about 5 years ago .. I'm just double checkin

No, you're fine. Thyroid meds are simply to replace the hormone your body produces insufficiently.

I'm on thyroid meds and I take Dexedrine for ADHD. If speed is fine with thyroid meds, I can't see why energy drinks wouldn't be.

What reason did this person give you?

I've had trouble sleeping for years, usually takes me an hour and half to fall asleep.

This thread is old though, did Raz ever make it to a doctor?

I know alot of folks might disagree,But I blaze a bowl an hour before bed and I get the best sleep ever.
I have insomnia,had it for years and was taking 20mg of ambien a night,It was funky,I would sleep walk and I had no idea I would just walk around and talk to my family,I dont recall any of it.

She just told me that her doctor told her not to have any energy drinks , since that interfers with the thyroid meds..

Okay, well, not at the same time - caffeine for instance interferes with T4 absorption.

That's why I take my T4 buccally, at bedtime. Helps me get the most out of it.

I have been taking Ambien for a little over a week now. Stuff actually works really well. Only problem is I cannot sleep without it now. So if you don't mind having to take a pill every night then I would say try Ambien. Who knows what else it is doing to my brain in the mean time.

Hope you have fun when you log on the next day and realize you just typed a love letter to Prince while you were an Ambien Alien.....

No reason, she said her doctor would not allow her have energy drinks, like redbull back then while she is on thyroid meds..

btw, my meds working, I am avoding anything with soy and it seems its working

thanks built

try to drink milk and put socks on your feet they said it is effective

Kava and Valerian help for some

Kava can be slightly hepato-toxic however

Cut caffeine completely...if you are using it. Blows my mind that people never consider this to be part of the issue. Caffeine has a long half-life and can disrupt sleep patterns significantly.
