Hi, ladies.  Five weeks ago I began experiencing severe middle insomnia for the first time in my life.  I will sleep for 3 hours, be awake for 3 hours, and then maybe sleep for another hour before it is time to get up.  I also cannot nap no matter how tired I am because I tried that several times.  Ambien CR no longer keeps me alseep, nor does Lunesta, and I am not big on having to take a sleep aid every single night for sleep.  I have tried melatonin, which also has not kept me asleep.  I have been told I have hormonal imbalances (am nearly 44), am on no HRT, and wonder what anyone might suggest for sleep until I can get myself squared away on some hormonal therapy.  My poor husband...He has been a saint through all of this, but I am not sure how much longer I can work, keep up with the house, etc., with missing so many hours of sleep each night.    Pretty desperate here.
