Not Sleeping Well? There May Be a Medical Cause

Musculoskeletal disorders
The intense pain of arthritis can make drifting off to dreamland difficult. Plus, arthritis patients who must shift positions during the night often find it hard to fall asleep again. A pain reliever before bed can help ease sleep-stealing arthritis pain. Fibromyalgia, a condition characterized by painful ligaments and tendons, has also been linked with sleep disturbances, as well as next-day fatigue.
