Day 1 Monday June 4, 10 Am I have an appointment with my Doctor, Some test and I walk out with the Levo device. The day was fine, i'm full of hope. Is bed time and i'm using the iPod touch for the first time. I had some trouble sleeping, wake up every 2 hours. A bad night and a hard day with the ringing. I need to get used to the earphones. I put the device inside my pillow with a I touch cover for protection.
Day 2 I sleep better, but maybe because I needed to take 0.75 Xanax. That’s a lot for me, I don't like the addictive relationship. I saw my mother struggling with anxiety and always try to deal with my problems without drugs. But I guess its different now. Sleep depravation aggravate the noise. So, Let's rock & roll. |
If you have any questions, just ask. |
Day 11 Today I'm better, the gardener come and trimmed our yucca trees. after he left, i carried on with the cleaning and pealing of the yucca leafs. its good therapy being in my backyard and busy with my plants. I was using the Awake mode for almost 4 hours, a good time and a calm evening.

The rest of the day was the same. I contact the Doctor, he said the ups and downs are very typical, so he told me don't be discouraged. At night I watch soft movies or shows, nothing aggressive, not too much tension or horror. I choose Coco, a beautiful Story for kids. Sleep late still. I can't relax easy.
Day 17 I have a appointment with the government, time to renovate my green card. I woke up early and everything went smooth. After we had lunch at Whole Foods, I love the olives area, always try a different one. I'm tired but calmer looking to sleep sooner tonight. 6 Pm I went for a walk/run with the device. This the second time that the noise get louder after using Awake mode for 2 hours. Im going to try the Awake mode for 30 minutes to see how that goes, maybe 2 hours is too long. . Bed time soon. |
