Guest guest Posted August 6, 2003 Report Share Posted August 6, 2003 Actually, it makes sense. Your body knows it needs the rest and there is no better way of recharging than sleep. Good for you and hopefully you'll be able to avert all your future flares that way. I know I need my sleep. My normal night's sleep is at least 8 hours, but that's if I can nap for at least 1 hour during daytime. If I don't get that nap I need at least 9 to 10 hours during night. It's not always easy, but I try to stick to it. It's was worse when I was on 40mg of prednisone for 6 months. At some point I was so high there was no way I could sleep. But whenever it was time for chemo, it wiped me out for about a week and no amount of prednisone could keep me up. Take care of yourself.
