insomnia

I too have had insomnia...started about the third week post-op...along with night sweats and moodiness...crying big time ...all menopausal symptoms. The Doctor gave me a weeks worth of ambien but no more than that because of the addiction factor. DR took a blood test and a week later had the nurse call back to say I wasn't menopausal...."Well what the "#!% are all these symptoms showing up after the surgery. I know that Hyster Sister warned that the hormonal replacement would not be my Surgeons forte so I am on the hunt for the next fix. Without sleep every other symptom is magnified ...I think my system is in shock and unbalanced but I don't know what it will take to wake it up.Good luck to us all...first one to find a solution let us other Zombies know.
