All Backed Up

I ended up back at the ER the other day. I hadn't used the bathroom in 4 days, as most crohnies know, this is rare. Last time this happened, i had a bowel obstruction. So i went in, waited for hours, only to find out i was really backed up but no obstruction. 2 days later i finally went. My stomach was hard as a rock and i was in so much pain. But now im back to going like 5 times a day. Gotta love crohns and it's unpredictability...

No Rest For The Weary

I cannot sleep. I take ambien and my doctor just started me on mini press for ptsd nightmares. But no sleep. None. Nada. Nothing.

I have slept a matter of a few hours over the last 3 days and I'm taking sleeping medication.  It shouldn't be like this! Last night at 5am I broke down and went to the store and bought 2 bottles of nyquil to use over the next week or so. I also bought some sleep aid similar to zquil.

I ended up taking half a bottle of nyquil and 4 doses of sleep aid before i got to sleep. That lasted 2 hrs. Not even a full 2 hours; it was a broken up and down 2 hours. Ahh!!! I feel like im going crazy!

Insomia, you're a bitch. JS.
