Hi everyone
I have very painful dry eyes, I have gradually learned what makes it worse - certain meds, antihistamines, etc.
However, I have recently started using 5 HTP for sleep - I sleep every badly and this makes sore eyes sorer, of course. Anyway 5 HTP works brilliantly for sleep - but has made my eyes SUPER sore. So painful I feel sick. But i'm loathe to stop as i'm sleeping brilliantly! Have tried just about everything!
My question is - has anyone else experienced this - and does it get better after a few weeks? I know side effects can often wear off with this type of treatment - a bit like anti depressants.
Any one out there with any knowledge?
Thank you!
