Fibromyalgia pain: Let's connect

I have had a sleep study and have a prescription sleep aid (and other medications for other conditions with drowsiness as listed side effects). It seems when my brain doesn't want to shutdown, however, nothing works and I am awake all night regardless of medications. Its a real bummer and does interfere with my life and I think makes my fibromyalgia symptoms (and others) worse.

Forgive me if you have done this already among the many likely things you have tried. Have you tried taking magnesium malate (best for relaxation) or magnesium glycinate (2nd best by my research) before retiring to bed (approx. 150-300mg)? These seem to help a lot of people become sleepy, including both my wife and I. Just suggesting. I feel for you and your problem with sleep. Best, Hank
