    Not sure.  I haven't been given a dysautonomic diagnoses (yet) but I have severe sleeping disorder as well: can't sleep; can't stay asleep; and all my sleep is awful.  I also have insanely vivid dreams --- and will have them even if I have only slept for maybe 30 minutes.   Like, I'll have dreams I can totally remember, second by second, as if there, even if I only doze off for a short while.  And I sometimes feel as if my dreamworld is crossing over into my waking world --- and by that I mean it's difficult to tell when I'm falling asleep and when the dream is taking over.  It's pretty much disrupted my entire life.  I lost one job and am on the verge of losing this one.  Do you have anything similiar to this?  I don't have POTS or anything with my heart, but I do feel "wired" at times which probably means something in the sympathetic or parasympathetic system is way off.  I have no clue how this came about as I was "fine" 4 months ago.   Best of luck.  

    You sound EXACTLY like me:( 

  2. Hi friends. I’m new here. I have a diagnosis of dysautotonomia and mast cell activation. I do have elevated catecholamines, so Doctor is thinking hyperPOTS. 

    I have had chronic, treatment resistant insomnia for 4 years which has caused constant fight/flight anxiety, constant derealization and dizziness. My nearly n fog is terrible. For the past 4 years all I can do is lay on my couch. I’m miserable and making my family miserable. I’m truly at the end of my rope. I need sleep in the worst way. 

    I have tried (I think) every possible medication, supplement and herb for insomnia and have paradoxical reactions to EVERYTHING. I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts? Also wondering if Colandor can help with these symptoms? Planning on talking to a new doctor about this next week. 

    Thank you!
