I dread nighttime anymore. The generalized anxiety gets worse at night (as do the heart palpitations). So, it takes me forever to get to sleep. But once I do, I don't stay asleep because I get achy or uncomfortable and wind up waking up every time I turn over. I've found a few things that seem to be easing my symptoms, but only the ones that happen during the day. I haven't found anything yet to help with the increased anxiety.
Adrianna, my sis-in-law, has dealt with thyroid problems. She thinks I'm cycling back and forth between hyper- and hypothyroidism. Considering my symptoms, she's probably right. Looking back, I think I've dealt with thyroid problems for many years, it's just the symptoms were so mild before I didn't really think of it. It would make sense that my thyroid might just be to the point of giving out. Hopefully, the supplements will be enough to right things.
