Well...........It might just be the wonder pill in my box of tricks. I have a drug Ativan that I can take for Nausea at night. Evidently it causes drowsiness which is awesomely perfect for someone that hasn't slept much in days. I slept for 8 hours. I know it doesn't sound like much but it was full sleep. I didn't wake up once during the night. Today is the day for the Neulasta shot. Hopefully I don't get the muscle aches but if I do there's a pill for that. haha. There seems to be a Pill for just about everything possible. Up to this experience I can't say that I ever cared to take a pill for "Anything". I am not a "medication" type person. But I will tell you from my experiences take what the Drs give you they will help you get through all of the ups and downs. And there are alot of them.
My Wise oldest sister once told me (a few weeks ago). If there is a medication that will help you sleep, and just feel better take it! It's stupid to pretend you don't need it. If you didn't need it the Drs wouldn't prescribe it. I think she is right and I am taking her advice. for once. haha.
Yay for sleep! I didn't make it to 8 hours, but I did get some sleep. I'm really happy for you. My anti-nausea also makes me sleep, but then I don't wake up in time for work and Paul frowns on that. :) I did take it over the weekend and I did get 8 hours of sleep on Friday night and Saturday night. You are an inspiration for dealing with the fibro!
