Ive been stuck in the hospital for 7 days....went in due to my disease and inflammation in my spine pressing on my nerves. No more shooting pain in my leg, just my regular horrific pain (got better meds at least to help me from burning my tailbone with my heating pad because I was in so much pain due to Ankylosing Spondylitis). I have a blister on my tail bone with some of the skin torn away (a word of warning be careful with your heating pad). Ill have a home health nurse to take care of that and I also have a urinary tract infection. Just goes to show you that if you go into the hospital for one thing you will come out with one or two more.

Ok, here is the link, cant type anymore my new IV is in my hand

We tried melatonin for my son but it did not have any effect at all.

Thank you....had my IV moved :). I supposedly get to go home tomorrow. I wish I would have known about melatonin for my oldest it may have helped him with his sleep issues.
