Yes, for the last two weeks I was afraid to sleep. I had my first real breathing problems when I took some stuff to my exSIL as she waited in line to get free dental work done (waited over 24 hours). Going back to the car I walked through some cigarette smoke. In less than 60 seconds I was having a hard time wheezing. Luckily I had Jessie's inhaler in my purse or husband was going to call 911. He was fumbling for his phone as I found the inhaler and it started helping.
Two days later a migraine hit. Lasted over a week. I would feel better from the imitrex but then it would come back. So I would take another. I am allowed to do this per the docs.
I forgot that one side effect is feeling pressure on the chest/neck. So I was waking up in a panic feeling I couldn't breathe.
I finally stopped taking the medications, the migraine hit and lasted 36 hours, and am on the other side. Thinking more clearly, it all combined to make me go almost 2 full weeks on 3-4 naps of about 20 mins each per day, and ONE day where I got 4 hours of sleep.
Has anyone else ever had this fear of sleeping? It is very new to me.
