Hi everyone.
Well I literally "overdid" it this evening. Since I wake up really early I usually try to get to bed a bit earlier (like 9 or so). It dosen't do much for the night life or late night TV lineup, but I do sleep fairly well.
I am on 160 mgs of Beta-pace twice a day. The doses are to be 12 hours a part. I often lay my pill beside my bed so I can take it any time after 4:30 AM.
Last night I was especially tired and when I picked up my dose for this morning, I absent mindedly popped it right into got my mouth and swollowed it. I was almost asleep when my wife came to bed. That woke me up and I suddenly realized what I had done. I took this mornings dose only 5 hours after yesterday afternoons dose.
I was a little worried as my cardiologist once said, "We can up your dose because you have the ICD. At least we know it won't kill you." So I have not slept all that well as I kept wondering if my ICD was going to fire. But so far so good. I'll try to be more awake the next time. And I feel like I am getting sleep again. I'll try to go back to bed.
Peace,
Leon
