Detailed Answer:
Hello.Delighted to be able to help.
It seems that you do not sleep well at night due to nerve problem. If you do not sleep well at night is normal that you have drowsiness daytime,spilling food or drink. It is recommended that you take at night any drug for neuropathic pain, which improves pain and also has a sedative effect. I recommend taking Pregabalin 25-50 mg at night,will improve your pain and insomnia.
Please consult your doctor for a prescription.
