@merkat30 I’m so sorry you are having such horrible symptoms at night. I still have awful insomnia. I fall sound asleep and then wake up between 3-4 am if lucky . Wake up with night sweats , then I take a  5 mg of melatonin and try to go back to sleep. I can go to sleep relaxed and calm and wake up feeling horrible. It is the worst thing to have chronic insomnia. Sometimes I wake up with achy pain head to toe. Yes I have nausea too. The nightmares can also be very disturbing. I have a prescription for gabapentin but a little scared to take it. I may try it soon , I heard it helps with the night sweats and autonomic neuropathy in my feet that is also painful at night . Have you tried gabapentin? I hope you have some restful sleep soon. Take care

I've also had terrible struggles with insomnia - my rheumatologist suggested I take Amitriptyline (anything up to 75mg) and it did help my sleep but it raised my resting HR and made POTS worse so I stopped.  I now take 150mg Trazodone (a low dose anti-depressant), I need to take it by 7pm in order to get to sleep by midnight but I definitely do sleep better, prior to all my bradycardia problems I would get about 3-4 hours of uninterrupted sleep which was more than I'd had in a decade!  I still get adrenaline surges but only in the morning , not during the night.

I also have MCAS and benadryl (US version, diphenhydramine) is super helpful for me when I have sleep issues

Be careful though, I think in the UK the drug labelled "benadryl" is a different actual drug, not sure if that would help or not (adding this in case you or anyone reading this lives in the UK)
