Sleep patterns are way off (wide awake!)

I'm awake and don't want to be. I have to be up in 6 hours, but I just can't go to sleep before 1 am and can't sleep late anymore.

I tried again this weekend, but I woke up around 7 ish and couldn't go back to sleep. And forget about napping! I can't lie down at all with any food or drink in my tummy.

Anyone else's sleep patterns change after surgery?

this thread is very interesting! But I've been quite the insomniac for a while now, even before WLS. I do take b12 but it is because I am consistently B12 (and Vit D for that matter) deficient if I don't. And again, that was even before WLS. I haven't had any follow up blood work done tho. I have no idea if my sleep is any better or worse, but I take my Lunesta as needed and am a happier camper for it! :-D
