"here&#039;s a trick to help my fellow insomniac&#039;s sleep. i have 3 very painful forms of arthritis in my upper and lower back, neck, knees, feet, hands, exc. i have insomnia from chronic pain, and severe ptsd. 2mg lunesta got me 4hrs rest. 3mg got me 6hrs sleep. i finally got 8 hours sleep by raising my dose to 2-2mg pills per night. i didn&#039;t get 4, 6, or, 8 hrs sleep until i changed eating habits. plan your evening like so: eat a small portion of healthy foods. wait 20-30 minutes, and then take your lunesta. wait 20-30 minutes, and eat another small portion of healthy food, and head to bed. the food keeps the medicine in your system longer. also for those paying cash like me, use blinkhealth.com. i get my 60-2mg pills for $53.16 a month."
