Talk to MD: Sleep apnea can be a side effect of testosterone replacement and would result in frequent awakenings. Generally increased energy can be a result of treatment, but usually not insomnia. Make sure you're practicing good sleep hygiene and not exercising close to bedtime.

29, sedentary. Lately heart rate has dipped into low 50s-high 40s only when lying down close to sleep, sitting up is 60s-70s. Recently (last month) had heart tests but everything was normal. Have sleep apnea, currently on period. Should I be worried?

My doctor has prescribed me zoloft 50mg. Just completed one week but the past 3 nights I've had a lot of trouble sleeping. Would it be from the medication or for my anxiety? It was happening before I started the meds but not as bad or as frequent.
