      Last night only got about 2 hours of sleep. This sleep problem became worse when put on medication for atrial fib. The most sleep on average is about 4 hours per night. I don’t nap during day so I don’t compromise my attempts to sleep at night. I drive with alertness!

      Have tried reading, watching tv which occasionally causes me to doze off until I go to bedroom and then can’t sleep.

        Have you spoken to your doctor about your concerns? Your doctor will be able to tell you if sleep disruption is a known side-effect of your medication and, if that’s the case, may be able to prescribe an alternative drug.

        How are you determining the amount of sleep you are getting each night? Are you using a sleep tracker or keeping a sleep diary/log?

        Other than your medication, what do you think is stopping you from falling asleep?
