At the moment I am having to sleep sitting up because of my arm. In the main it has not been too bad but there have been a few nights, last night was one of them, when I just couldn't settle. I am up and down, having a walk around the bedroom, moving the pillows, checking my phone.....anything , to keep myself occupied and then I try to sleep again .....nothing is working at the moment....
What should I do to help me get back to sleep .....

I'm sorry you were having trouble getting comfortable. I hope you've gotten some sleep since you made this post.
Are you sleeping in a recliner? Being partly elevated with your cast across your body might help you get comfortable since we want to protect broken bones.

@Traceyjayne I hope everything goes smoothly for you.
I don't sleep well at night and, mostly, sleep during the daytime. I think I mentioned that but I just woke up so am not positive right now.

It certainly must be uncomfortable trying to get your arm in a comfortable position and falling asleep. Hopefully you can take a nap and catch up on the sleep you missed.

Got any Benzos? That’ll do it. Just nibble away on them until you pass out.
I fell asleep at 7 pm like an old woman and woke up at 7 am
Advil and Benzos is what you need.
Hope you feel better and maybe get a good nap in today.
