So Tired

I went to see my Dr. on Friday and was told that I am suffering from non-restorative sleep. That is when you go to sleep, but don't actually get any rest. This has been going on for I don't know how long. I am so tired... I go to bed and wake up feeling like I didn't. I can not get anything done, I forget things ie: putting water on to boil for pasta last night, then forgetting about the cooking pasta... got lucky and it wasn't too overcooked. I can't concentrate on any one thing for any amount of time and just feel grumpy. I resorted to taking OTC sleeping pills last night to see if I could get a little rest... I guess I'm slightly more awake today in comparison to yesterday... it's hard to tell anymore. My Dr. has prescribed more drugs, but they'll take anywhere upto 3 weeks to kick in so if I suddenly go absolutely mental it's due to sleep deprivation so please forgive me. Hopefully it's nothing more than another side effect of chronic pain - I can just add it to the list of things that I find myself suffering from. Of course it comes right when it seemed things were getting back on track... anyway... must think positive and hope the Universe is still up there looking out for me... I really good use the extra help.
