Melatonin MIRACLE

Women's health

Hi gals.  I'm new here.  I've been chomping at the bit to share this with someone who might appreciate its significance.  Here we go....

I had a total hyst @ age 29...25 years ago.  1 year later I was 100 lbs. heavier, had thinning hair, no libido & suffered from fibromyalgia.  Great life, huh?  Well, fast forward to 3 weeks ago.  Because 15 mg of Ambien wasn't quite doing the job any longer, I decided to try melatonin.  I figured, what could it hurt, right?  O-M-G!  I took my first 5mg tablet on Friday night, slept pretty well with only 5 mg of Ambien.  That was wonderful.  But during the wee hours of Saturday morning I had the most fabulous, erotic dream about my husband I've ever had in my life!  And let's just say that we've been on a 2nd honeymoon ever since!

I feel GREAT!  I'm still using Ambien, but much less.  I'm taking half the pain meds I normally take & that's because I'm in very little pain!!  I can't emphasize enough what a huge transformation this is.  I've been in constant pain for over 20 years.  It came to feel normal.  I also just accepted that the best of marriage were over & that I needed to accpet aging gracefully.  It never occured to me that I was severely deficient in anything, other than estrogen.  I did ERT for 12 years but quit due to risks. And I've lived like an old lady for years, letting my lousy health define me.  But since taking my wonderful little melatonin tablets, I've been reborn...renewed!  I've fallen in love with my man all over again.  I laugh & have a bit of energy, even after a long day.  I feel younger.  I don't know if this will last, but ladies, I intend to ride this train to the of the line!  All the doctors & specialists did over the years was pile on the Rx meds.  But no one ever suggested replacing whatever might have been lost along with my ovaries.  I lost out on too much for too long & I'm so grateful to have been given this chance to enjoy my life again.  Who'd have imagined, a $10.00 bottle of OTC counter pills that I bought at the grocery store would make all the difference in the world? Wow!  

Thanks for reading, girls.  I wish all of you a similar experience.  :-)

Oh, Sue, I'm just a girl who fell into a lovely hole.  I can only share my personal expereince.  I totally understand your concerns regarding side effects & you're wise not to underestimate them.  I did do some research before popping my first miracle pill & the worst side effects of melatonin itself was next day grogginess, so I wasn't terribly concerned.  I have taken Ambien along with the melatonin with no adverse affects, but I haven't checked my BP yet to know if there there's been any changes there.  Of course, checking with your doc first is always wise, so they say.  That said, I know for a fact few if any doctors will urge a patient to try an OTC remedy, no matter how promising.  I believe we're kind of on our own in that regard.  That's one reason I wanted to share my story.  I know, I've been NO help whatsoever.  If you do want to try it, perhaps a very low dose to start is best.  In fairness, I will tell you that I have never been 'typical' when it comes to health issues.  So my extreme, yet oh so fabulous response to melatonin may at the far end of the range.  Use your best judgement is the safest thing I can say.  If you try it, let us know how it goes.  P.S.  If you have half the reaction I did, tell your hubby to buckle up!
