Prednisone and insomnia
Hello Jo,
Prednisone (steroids) kept me awake all night. I had sleeping pills which helped until 2 or 3 in the morning. Hospital lights were off at 9pm so it gave me around 5 hours drug induced sleep. Worth it. I have now weaned off the sleeping pills.
Find what you can eat, like fruits or even cornflakes. It's SO okay to have dessert for dinner, too !
Hopefully your platelets will come back soon.
Lots of prayers your way.
Meri.
