GH - Arms falling asleep at night?

[tical]

This has been annoying the hell out of me, I'll sleep for a good 5-6 hours and then the last 2-3 hours I'm tossing and turning / waking up every 15-20 minutes because my arms are falling asleep.

I tend to sleep on my sides & it happens on either side, but it even happens when I'm on my back.

The thing that kills me though is because I'm on gh - growth hormone (somatropin) - whenever I wake up it's hard as hell to fall back asleep because it makes me feel like I'm wide awake in the morning.

Shit kicks my ass the rest of the day, I'm a zombie after noon... anyone here have this problem? Is there anything I can do?

Yes one side effect of gh could be tingling and numbness in limbs. Usually with time it might subside

It was the worst for me -- same exact as you are describing -- on Serostim. I was up to 9 IUs per day (half 6mg vial). Now, on Jintropin, 10 IUs per day, it's nothing as bad. The best thing about your sides is you know your gh - growth hormone (somatropin) - - growth hormone (somatropin) - is real and damn potent. Try ice packs, heat pads, and try sleep aids, maybe ambien, or otc like diphenhydramine or doxolamine succinate (available at any Walgreens or CVS). Brand name is Sominex. Walgreens generic version is Walsom. But those are diphenhydramine. The doxolamine succinate is even more effective and otc.

Ahh, waking up at night and thinking you have no limbs, worst feeling in the world. However, i've found that when i wake up in the morning normally, I had no numbness. So, IMHO take an ambien, sleep a FULL night and forget it. Don't get hooked on those bad boys though, there life changing.

I am now on day 42 of my 180 (6 month) days cycle of GH. I take 3iu's every day.

I have been waking up around 4am to go to the bathroom and when I do my forearms and hands are very numb. I think it has been getting slightly better.

I'm going to hang in there a few more weeks and then decide if I should drop the daily dose or split it into two pins.

perhaps lower your dose to see if this helps alleviate this problem, also increase your water intake. it is very common side effect of HGH

good luck to you
