Insomnia! Suffered with this for more years than i can remember but the worse side effect is chronic itching all over my body after a poor nights *sleep* doctors have not been able to to give me any idea why this happens but i have never had a normal life with the itching as no one wants to be with me if i Am constantly scratching so i take comfort from caring for animals that do not judge me for itching.

I would give anything to get rid of the constant itch it has ruined my life.

I don;t go out much nor have any friends because of the embarrassing condition.

I worked i an office and was questioned why I pet scratching i just said i had gnat bites at the time but ended up taking cleaning jobs where i wouldn’t be noticed

i just want to be normal like everyone else.

I would like to be rid of my COPD as it is debilitating and preventing me from getting fit and preparing for another heart operation soon. My doctors are concerned about my breathing which is delaying the procedure to go ahead.
