Difficulty sleeping!

Recommended Posts

I've had that problem for years, I can totally relate! The only thing that helps me is making sure there is white noise in the room that is louder than the pulse in my ear.

I get that occasionally, but it usually accompanies either a cold, flu or sinus infection. Shifting my head/ear around until I can't hear the pulse sometimes does the trick, but by the time I find the right spot, I'm usually struggling to get back to sleep.

How soon you forget! I put the fan in the a/c on the "on" position to mask the noise. It's not as bad as one of those machines.

I had the same problem. I found that by putting my hand between my head and the pillow was just enough to raise my ear slightly off the pillow. Couldn't hear my pulse. Works like a charm.

For me, I have difficulty sleeping on my stomach. I can sleep on someone else's, but not mine.:)

My wife has a box fan she turns on at night to mask
extraneous noises (extraneous= me snoring) it helps her a lot it took me a while to get used to it but now I don't even notice the fan.

When I don't exercise (i.e. drive to work, sit on my butt all day) I have trouble sleeping for a dozen reasons - too hot, too cold, neck hurts when I do X, whatever. When I exercise (go to the DZ, bike to work etc) I don't have any trouble because I'm tired at night. So for me it's pretty straightforward.

Sounds like "Venous hum", not to be confused with the band "Venus Hum", (named because one of the members has the condition).
