I want to get off of ambien and sleep aids all together, but when I try to do it myself, I get extremely sick and can’t stop shaking and vomiting. If I make an appointment with my doctor, what can he do for me? I dont feel that my problem is big enough for "rehab", but I definitely know that I need some sort of intervention.

On a lot of antihistamine and sinus medications it says to consult your doctor if you have thyroid disease. What is the reason for this? I have hypothyroid and a bad cold so I need to take something so I can sleep. I know this is a question I should ask my doctor (and I intend to when I see her on Monday) but is it dangerous for me to take sinus medication?

Who is responsible when bed bugs are found in an apartment? Is the landlord responsible for getting rid of the infestation? We didn’t have this problem in our last apartment, it happen after we moved – I think the apartment whole building has got it.
How I can be responsible forit when they will spray for every other kind of bug – roaches, ants ect ect . . . .

Also how does one go about proving it was already here? It’s my word against their’s isn’t it?
Bill, that’s why I am on the computer at 3.27am and not in bed. Every time I feel the slightest itch I am out of my bed like a shot of lightening but at this rate I won’t be getting any sleep at all for weeks until I can get this place under control.

I wish I could just drop everything and run for the hills but alas I cannot.

Thanks for the sympathy, I needed it. And I will look into the renter’s rights down here and see what I can find. Thank you.
Zero – I did read through my lease and no where in it does it implicitly state who is repsonsible for pest control, it simply says they can enter your home to spray if you aren’t there to let them in.

i am always tired, I don’t think it’s really normal. I could sleep the whole day if you let me. I have tried things like sleeping less or sleeping more, but I am still tired and weak. is there any kind of disease that that could result from? I have already been tested negative for anemia.

I’m always afraid to sleep in my OWN bed now !

But i’ve also seen one crawl on my pillow. My mom has cleaned my sheets .. but i’m still afraid !!! Are these bed bugs? how do you get rid of these nasty things !!?

At the middle of lunch, our eldest sister suddenly fell asleep with food in her mouth. She wasnt feeling drowsy before that happened. she was even relating a story while eating when she suddenly stopped, closed her eyes and slept sitting. We dismissed it as "over fatigue." a week ago, while she was folding laundered clothes, she suddenly fell asleep again without feeling drowsy before the sleep. Is there a known sickness with this symptom? By the way, our sister turned 60 years old last October 2008.

I have a sore throat. I’m not thirsty, it doesn’t hurt when I pee, I am kind of tired, but that’s probably because I didn’t get much sleep last night. My question is, are sore throats a symptom diabetes?

I had a friend say they found bed bugs at their house and I am quite paranoid. I vacuum constantly and my sleep number bed is basically a fancy air mattress. Am I bed bug safe?
