OP "Above & Beyond" Member (500+ posts) Joined: Aug 2008 Posts: 531 | Another question I want to put out there to see if is a part of the "new normal". I have been going long time of no sleep no sleep no sleep and today I just am so tired I am feeling I am sleeping my life away. I am just soooo tired... still keeping an eye on a few issues concerning ears, nose and head mostly seem to do with pressure and really not painful. My nose seems to be stuffy and dry and I get pressure headaches (but not painful headaches)similar to a sinus headache and muscle chest pain every time I try to do exercise there is a very painful pulling below my collar bone...Comparing side my left side disection is almost back to normal but my right where the tumor was still I think has a way to go. Ok rambling back on topic I guess I just want to talk to someone anyone who has been through this...sleep I want to go back to bed again now...My back is actually allowing me to take walks started cause had to do something...only 10-15 min walk but baby steps right...Sleep should be good right and not a sign of something wrong like infection? God I am a hypocondriac but back to that scared thing...I am holding tight till massage but I guess I just wanted to ask if this is still all new normal.
Thanks for listening
