awake at 2am

So here we are again wide awake, it was back ache and muscle ache that woke me, I have taken some paracetamol to ease it, didn't want to have anything stronger trying to stay away from crocodile as I have been using it more to help me sleep than a pain killer if the para doesn't,work then I have a codeine I can take to also help.

Night times are so difficult aren't they?
i seem to sleep in blocks of 1.5 and 2 hrs then awake for couple of hours then sleep again
Seems to be a fairly universal thing amongst us hippies
My back tends to wake me up rather than hip pain - think it's sleeping on my back that does it. I take 2 high dose co codamol at bedtime
I just go with the flow and don't let it bother me - plenty of TV and good books to read and hot chocolate and biscuits of course!
Must say when I do sleep, sleep quality is better now
3 weeks post op and feeling a little better each day
Hope you are feeling better too
Kind wishes Linda
regards Linda

My dr told me difficulty with sleep is #1 complaint with hip replacement. I have been suffering the last few weeks from interrupted sleep and have been exhausted. I have been reading about natural remedies to help and found a few suggestions: tart cherry juice (1 8 oz glass in morning and evening)--research shows this works because it contains natural melatonin, chamomile and lavender tea, and warm milk with tbsp honey. I had the milk last night--slept soundly for 6.5 hrs. Pure bliss.
Hope some one of these help (along with staying ahead of pain).
