For the past two weeks I have been taking Amoxicillin 500mg TID for a sinus infection, tooth abcess, and subsequent root canal. It dawned on me that I have been sleeping 8-10 hours a night for the past 10 days. I assumed the amoxicillin was making me tired but perhaps it is my gut? This is amazing because I have suffered from chronic insomnia for the past 20 years! I was lucky to sleep 4 hours then awake for two then possibly back to sleep for another hour.
Today I take my last Amoxicillin dose and I do not want to go back to my old sleep habits. I try to eat somewhat 'Peaty' but I have problems with dairy and collagen (both cause terrible bloating). Perhaps this will change to after the Amoxicillin? Any suggestions short of regular antibiotic use to keep this wonderful sleep going?
