[QUOTE="ratski, post: 2537558, member: 936"] Based on what you have said, my first question would be have you ever been tested for sleep apnea? Your symptoms sound a lot like sleep apnea. Good sleep hygiene helps, melatonin works, but you might be surprised at what a CPAP or Oral Appliance can do for your sleep. I see and treat a lot of people for sleep apnea that will start out telling me "oh, I'm tired because I have kids at home" or "I'm tired because of my job", etc. Turns out that they are tired because the can't get a good quality sleep. It doesn't matter how many hours of sleep you get, it there is no quality to it, you will have problems. Talk to your MD or possibly your Dentist about it. But to be honest, a lot of MDs are not real knowledgeable in this area. Nor are a lot of dentists. Dave [/QUOTE]
