Eek--more foggy than usual--any tips?

I've had to go back on meds I take for when my digestion kicks up.  This makes me very sleepy, even though I take it a couple hours before bedtime.  I'm able to break the tablet in fourths, and take a tiny piece each hour, up to about 2 hours before I go to bed.  This helps me not be overcome by sleepiness, but.....

I'm still groggy the next day.    The pills (Elavil) do help, though!  When I first started having this "issue," I took double the dose.  I don't know how I did it!

So, I write myself lots of notes, take breaks, pace myself, even get a nap in, but I'm just wondering if anyone has other suggestions for getting though these VERY 'foggy' and sleepy days.  The meds are just wonderful for the issue I have, and I know I won't be on them for months (actually I used to be on them for years) like I used to be, but they are awfully tiring.  I sit down occasionally and feel like I could sleep in a heartbeat.  I have to keep motivating myself. I keep moving and I remind myself "this, too, shall pass"!

Any other tips appreciated.

Thanks, Debbie.

Yes, I think I just have to wait this out. The Elavil works so well for this as it's very drying (a side effect of this med). I'm hangin' in there....Right now it's wearing off somewhat, so maybe I can accomplish a little something.

Have a great, hopefully painfree day! :)

Thanks, Ljm2014! I wasn't aware of those specific points. Interesting! I'll give it a try.
