Yes I do this also. I go days even weeks where I do not sleep well at night. I.e. maybe 2-3 hrs of interrupted sleep each night then its like I hit a brick wall and I will sleep for 12- 14 hrs. And cannot come out of the sleep induced state. When I wake up my clothing, bedding, and etc with be damp from sweat. I also am not a diabetic but now have spells of hypoglycemia.
omg yes!!!! I can sleep morning to night completely zoncked. I immiediatly have to change my clothes. But hate to leave the covers to dry off because i no ill freeze!!!
I don't have any suggestions, but I have been in the same situation. You are so young, my thoughts and prayers are with you. Just go with what your body tells you. If it says sleep then sleep. Sometimes just going for a long walk helps. I walk a lot even if it hurts. It at least gets your mind off your pain.
@A MyFibroTeam Member yes that happens to me from time to time usually if I've done too much housework or I've walk too far or exercise too much. I call it a flare up when. Fibromyalgia is with us and unfortunately will never leave us but Erin there are times when I don't sleep at night and you know I pass out and I sleep for like 10 hours and yes I wake up in the bed with I'm sweaty and everything blood sugar is @ 60 and I have to eat.( I am diabetic) best thing I can say about that is just try some natural onver the counter type melatonin supplements for sleep, because thats the closest to our own body's delivery of melatonin and I think that will help. I've tried it and it has helped me......so I hope that helps.
