And I'm so tired. I know I am more tired that usual. I was almost falling asleep in the chair at the infusion room. When I got home I ravenously ate a sandwich then fell asleep and slept two hours like it was NOTHING. I had to get up just now because I need to go pick up my husband from work but honestly, I could still be sleeping.


Has this happened to anyone else? Should I be concerned?
 
I fell asleep 3 times in a movie theater today, with my daughter on my lap, and I was not getting an infusion at the time, haha.
The extra amount could just be messing with your body a bit, or it could even be a coincidence and your body just needed sleep. Hanging out in that chair is relaxing to me, and maybe it was just signaling your body to sleep. Do they give you Benadryl ahead of time? For my first infusion I was knocked out the rest of the night more or less, but since I switched to non-drowsy Claritin I have been fine for the next 4 infusions.
I can go weeks without a nap, and then one weekend I will take one on Sat and Sun.
I wouldn't say to worry about it - especially if you take Benadryl. See how you feel tomorrow.
 
Thanks MBH. Nope no Bene's or anything before hand. But I sure am still tired. Went to the grocery store after picking up hubs and ...shew...I'm wiped out. I bought some Reeces Pieces and a Coconut cake tho to make me feel better. >=)
 
Coconut? Isn't that sand paper for the intestines? Someone's Remi must be working! I ate pecans yesterday and today! Yippee!
 
Hey MBH and Pen-=)

I feel much better today! Looks like 14 hours of sleep cured my ills. LOL.

Double dose = TIRED Kittee.
