All I want for Christmas is you....

It sounds like you might be getting a fever at night.  This could be caused by many things, but the night time is usually time time when fevers spike.  I would definitely go to your doctor to get checked out, to make sure that it's not a medical problem that needs attention.  If you are just having trouble sleeping and it's nothing medical, I would suggest putting a van by your bed to keep air on you while you sleep.  Also, I would read a book before bed to get more tired before you actually do go to sleep.  The more tired you are before going to bed, the better you sleep, usually.  Good luck.

NOTICE: By the time you have noticed this notice, you will have noticed that this notice is not worth noticing.

You didn't specify your sex or age.  If you're female, and over 30, it could be menopause or premenopause (yes, you can enter menopause at an "early" age, as soon as about 30.  If you're male, and over about 50, it could be a prostatic problem, including prostatic hypertrophy or even prostatic cancer.  In either or all cases you do need to see medical attention.  In women, the doctor can do a blood test to check your estrogen and/or FSH levels to look for menopause.  If male, you need a digital prostate examination (embarrassing, but necessary) to check for an enlarged prostate.

Hi,


Menopause could be THE explanation but there can be some other as well (e.g: High sugar value)..... and it can be psychological reasons as well.  You have to find out what are the exact reasons to those simptoms.  Better consult your GP.
Best regards,

Bliss is a constant state of mind, undisturbed by gain or loss.

Eat a peace of a  marijuana cookie before you go to sleep. You will not wake up before morning. It works for me.
