A member asked:
Im trying to sleep but toss and turn to a dead weight felling all over body what could it be??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Insomnia: Feeling dead weight and sleepless indicates some hormonal imbalance due to stress. Mostly increased cortisol at night leads to weight gain and insomnia and decreased thyroid function. So addressing lifestyle with change in diet , stress management and nutrition will help. If not seek evaluation
