In the past six months I have began to
fall out of bed. Last night it happened
again, making it my 6th or 7th time, it
usually happens around 3:00 a.m. to 4:00
a.m. and my bed is high so it is a long
way down. I don't realize it until I hit
the floor. At first I didn't think to
much of it nor did my husband. But last
night it was a very hard fall and my neck,
back and tailbone hurt as well as where I
hit the nightstand with my leg. I have
always been the weird one who sleeps at
the wrong end of the bed but in the 23
years I have been married I never fell out
of bed until recently. I would say it was
the dogs (3 beagles) but they sleep with
us every night and have for years. Please
help me and give me an idea or ideas of
why I keep falling out of bed. I will be
checking with my primary Doctor but she is
vacation until May . Again, Please help
me and my min state of why this could be
happening. Thank you for taking your time
to read this and hope to hear from someone
soon.
I suppose that you are very unsteady while
sleeping so, while doing those movements,
you fall from the bed. Can you ask your
husband to observe you while sleeping so
that you can figure out how that falling
from the bed happens?
