Hi Dana,
Thank you for your answeres to my questions. i am so sorry for your pain as it seems like you are in the same boat as I. I will post a new comment above and cover some of this but I wanted you to know that I found a great answer to the sleep problem. Some people here suggested a pill called Ambien. OH MY GOD!!!! My doc gave me some and now I sleep like a corpse! You owe it to yourself to try it. Read my next entry for some other more positive stuff. In the mean time... I will go see if you have a diary and if you do, I will write something there. Thanks again and get better!
Mike
