Enid Report post Posted May 24, 2008 Hi, Have just had the joy of doing mine a couple of weeks ago! I read in one of these post that you should always put the worst case senario, so you should mention that he has been prescribed it, they may well ring you GP anyway, but say that even though it gets him to sleep and you have a couple of hours respite, to catch up with everything you cant do when he is awake!! he is then up many times in the night. If he is that is. Enid Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
justamum Report post Posted May 24, 2008 (edited) Well not looked it up or anything but I would have thought the mere fact that it has been prescribe to help with night time problems should say you have problem before you go on to explain more Edited to add..you take pain killers to get rid or ease pain but you mention those and just because you take them it does not mean you don't have a problem Edited May 24, 2008 by justamum Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
