This has been happening for more or less past 7 months. It's worse if I do ANY exercise during the day, even some slow walking. If I sit on my **** the entire day it gets tiny bit better, but even if i go shopping which takes me like 20 min at a slow pace then the symptoms will be aplified tenfold.
- there's a small movable lump literally on top of my adams apple (right side), not on my thyroid, but above it. It sometimes hurts a tiny bit, but most of the time it seems benign. Not sure when I've started developing this or if this is in any way relevant.
- hypersensitivity to caffeine, after one cup of strong coffee i can't sleep for like 2 days straight
- hard to fall asleep, the moment i get to bed i stop being sleepy
- waking up after 2 to 3 hours after falling asleep with hot body temperature, instinctually i have to uncover myself because i'm too hot, it's worse if i have a shower before bed or ANY exercise duting the day
- hypnic jerks, muscle twitches as i'm falling asleep, this is much worse if i had any kind of exercise during the day (walking, even a couple of pushups etc)
- bounding pulse in my ear/temples/chest, it's much worse right after i wake up in the middle of the night (together with elevated body temp)
- having to pee at least once during the night (this is a new one, has been heppening for maybe past 3-4 months) not sure if this is related at all.
- after i wake up it's very difficult to fall asleep again
- low blood pressure; systolic in the 90s, diastolic in the high 50s, low 60s.
- rarely, but sometimes happens; dizziness when standing up
I think I have listed everything, I'll update the post if I remember something else.
Dietary changes seem to have no effect whatsoever. Tried a few meds and supplements like vitamin d in the morning, sun exposure in the morning, melatonin, mianserin and a few others but to no avail. Appreciate any insight.
