What causes falling feeling while sleeping?
human
My husband can't sleep for 2weeks now. Has falling sensation when trying to sleep. Also says he's in a constant foggy ness. All this started same time he was dx with high cholesterol and type 2 diabetes. Is this anxiety? He is on glybride-metformin and pravastatin. He stopped taking pravastatin  about 5 days ago.

HiThanks for using healthcare magicI think, he has either anxiety symptoms or hypoglycemia. Few patients, due to anti-diabetic drugs feel low glucose level at night and feel anxiety symptoms. In that case, first rule out hypoglycemia induced anxiety symptoms. If all blood investigations come normal, then he can take some anxiolytic like clonazepam on sos basis. Rest, you can discuss with your physician. Thanks
