Yep, I suspect my next move will see me hooked up with someone watching me sleep. Now that hasn't happened since I was a new-born, or by some young lady who was newly in love with me way back!
I have a survey from my GP about the restless legs thing but my scores are pretty low on this one (sounds like when I used to do maths or chemstry back when). But it is probably part and parcel of the whole thing.
OhZone, someone down here also suggested adding magnesium to the mix so I shall also look at that.
Thanks again from 'the land of wonder, the land down under'.
A mummy bag; now that is an interesting suggestion. However, I suspect I would suffer a bad case of claustrophobia if I were to encase myself in one of those.
I do take a number of meds but most I have been on for years without any sleep disorders. And there is no chance of me carrying out a midnight 'fridge raid as my lovely wife would not approve.
Thanks to both of you for responding.
Spudee, do we have the same meaning of "mummy bag"?
In US, a mummy bag (and a camping pad, the 1" thick, air filled, rectangular "mattresses" that go under the mummy bag/sleeping bag) is part of a backpacker's kit. That style of sleeping bag is prized for being lighter weight, and easier to warm up in than a traditional rectangular sleeping bag. Mummy bags are in fact more form-fitting than rectangular sleeping bags - hence their names. Because there is less airspace to warm up inside them, they also have the benefit of conserving body heat more efficiently. At least I THINK that's the mechanics.
Sometimes the Oz and US dialects differ a little bit.
Jane, the thread is over 5 years old and Spudee hasn't posted in 2.5 years so best let this one rest.
LOL! Joke's on me - I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE that it was five years old!
