MamaTrain Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 Hello Again! Sorry I just seem to be full of 'New Topics' today! I was wondering if anyone finds that their symptoms are much more noticeable when they do not get enough rest? I have started to notice this when I have my wake up at 3am and toss and turn days and I had a complete freak out when we drove non-stop from Las Vegas. I felt pretty ok and then it just hit me like a ton of bricks! It took me 2 days to get to feeling like I was under control! I assume that this has to do with the fact that the nervous system is greatly affected by sleep. Hoping for a restful night tonight! :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountain girl Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 I see a definite connection. I feel better on about 12 hours of sleep. I also feel really bad if I travel even in a car. Long trips even 2 or 3 hours seem so tiring. Hope you can get some good sleep tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detrick7 Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 I definitely know what you mean. My worst episodes are in the shower in the morning, the more tired I am greatly increases my symptoms (nausea, light headed, blacking out, etc.). I was recently diagnosed with NCS. Before doctors knew what my issue was I was referred to a sleep doctor thinking sleep apnea may have been part of the problem. Probably because I always said my symptoms were much worse when tired and when I yawn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaTrain Posted November 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 How long you been dealing with this Mountain Girl? In the beginning of mine I couldnt handle being the passenger in a car let alone ride for more than 30mins as the driver! It was like the vibration of the car would just mess me up BAD! I wish I could sleep 12 hours....kudos to you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
