Oh for Heavens Sake!
I cannot sleep!
With the new treatment Taxol I have to take a lot of steroids IV. Steroids keep you awake. Steroids make you feel like Wonderwoman, which at 2:00 am is hard to keep quiet.
You didn't know this was going to be a medical post. Sorry, you can change the chanel if you are bored with medical stuff.
After the first 3 of these treatments I stayed up all night, all night, yes all night. I maybe got 1/2 hour one night and 1 1/2 the other two. And I work fine all day and then crash at 7:00 pm and wake up a t 9:00 am. Then I stay zoomy all day.
This has gotta stop so I decided to ask for sleeping pills. They gave me Ambian. I took one at 9 and then another at 10:00. I woke up at 1:30 am. Ok, 31/2 hours is better than nuthin.
There is a strange crazy person living in me!
At least on this chemo I feel so much better. The side affects are scarier as this drug is very potent. I feel human most of the time.
