Cut out caffeine from midday. Don’t eat late evening. Have a hot milk drink or live yoghurt before bed.

Diclofenac sodium, wife has it periodically for chronic pain, might have a fight though from GP as it has side effects if taken continually. She convinced them only once or twice a week when she really needed some sleep.
