Trouble sleeping

Anyone else have trouble sleeping after surgery? I wake up multiple times per night but am constantly tired. Has anyone tried melatonin?

I was taking melotonin regularly before surgery and surgeon gave no indication not to take it post-op

Ive been having problems sleeping too..... Mostly cuz I have to keep getting up to go to the bathroom...anyone else having that problem?

I started having this problem at almost my 3 month mark as well as the hair loss. I thought it was to be expected but found out from my primary care that my thyroid panels were out of whack. The primary care isn't pushing doing anything at this point as far as medication. cause the gland is enlarged and both him & surgeon seem to agree this will correct its self in time.... But until something gives I only average about 3 to 3 1/2 hrs sleep a day .. I take 3mg melatonin & that's the best I'm getting ... Hope this soon corrects its self or something

I am having trouble sleeping too. I have my 3 month blood work in the next couple of weeks so I am curious to see if my thyroid might be out of whack too.
