Who else can't sleep?

4.30 for me this morning! 

Had my last AC yesterday (woo hoo) but I think I must have gone to sleep too early. 

My onc has me taking 8mg of dex the night before my first 2 taxols to minimise the chance of an allergic reaction. 

God knows how I’ll be able to sleep those nights!! 

Xxxx

I’m hoping exhaustion kicks in tonight or I’ll be one cranky girl tomorrow!!

-4.5* this morning  sucks for neuropathy  ah Sister you are getting it done girl rest and know this too shall pass 
hugs 

Livin' the dream darl...

0.3oC here last night but has now reached the lofty heights of 8oC.  I've pulled the armchair up to the fire, having hot soup for lunch, with a wheat bag on my feet (can't stand the uggies at the moment because they put too much pressure on my toenails) and a nanna rug over my knees.  I'm such a go-getter.

Neuropathy sucks.... I am sitting here with a lavender heat pack on my lap which while I read I have my hands curled around it .... then put on lap while I type only way I feel my fingers through winter .... 
@kmakm  Over capacity  .... thats a joke when I was on with Kiwi Angel there were 2 on the network    us both !!!
Keep moving your hands and fingers @Sister
my boots have wool liners and thick warm socks and I still struggle with  my feet through winter. 
@"Kiwi Angel"
 I put on my Ipod with my mediation app to get me off it had not worked an hour earlier but must of worked as I woke at 7am with a start... 

@Sister I hear you LOUD and CLEAR. My neuropathic feet are yelling at me most of the day and night. It just got cold here in Perth and last night I had to put on 2 pairs of socks in bed to warm my feet up so I could get to sleep.  Then woke up with a hot sweat and had to rip them off...then repeat...then repeat.
Also end up with pins and needles in my hands if U skeep with my hands under the pillow level with my head. I have to have them lower than my heart these days.

@kmakm - wow - over capacity- never had that but it gives u an idea of how many of us are struggling!!  Hopefully exhaustion kicks in tonight. Sorry u r still struggling with the ankle pain xo

No sore muscles on TC here @"Kiwi Angel". Just killer ankle pain. Couldn't get to sleep last night either. Lay there worrying about the joint pain, how busy today is, recurrence, and.then worried about getting to sleep. Everytime I started to drift off I'd get a huge hot flush. I couldn't get on to the forum as it was "over capacity'" After about two hours I gave up & took some Valium. Still woke up intermittently all night. This is a rubbish way to live.

Sorry so many of us are struggling with night time at the moment. Hope tonight is better for us all.

@Sister that sux. I have a little bit in my feet still after chemo and that was annoying me this morning plus my sore muscles. Has anyone else had really sore muscles post TC chemo??  I got about 1/2 hr between 3 and 4 and then an hour somewhere between 4.30 and the alarm going off at 6. Feels like I was up drinking all night without the fun!!
