Guest KiminOrlando Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 I have tried Melatonin the last two nights. I'm hyperPOTS and normally wake up with my body vibrating and I randomly sweat all night. Both nights none of that happened. I woke up with my body still and relaxed. It was so calm and peaceful like I have never experienced. Has this happened to anyone else? Is there any medical reason this would happen? It doesn't make sense to me.

Pistol Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 @KiminOrlando - I have not tried Melatonin but I know it is a neurotransmitter, so it very well may positively affect your dysautonomia. I hope it continues to give your relief!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p8d Posted October 11, 2019 Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 I take it regularly and sometimes it helps, sometimes not. When I looked at side effects it can lower BP, likely because it is a neurotransmitter. I know that beta blockers decrease natural melatonin production which is why I take it. I have found that it looses effectiveness after awhile so I cycle through sleep meds and stop melatonin for a weeks and then it helps again. Enjoy the peaceful feeling! It’s so rare for us.
