I'm in a nursing home, age 50, and sufering horribly with uncontrolled flexations of my limbs. I am awake all night, and therefore, I need help to even stand and pivot to my w/c.I can't even hold a cup or keep my legs still when awake. I fall asleep ALL the time duing day time and off and on during the time I should be sleeping. All the staff blames it on sleep deprivation-but offer nothing to help rid myself of it. HELP!!!!!
