Re: insomnia

Same here Julie. I take Imovane - there are 2 doses - 5 mg. and 7.5 mg. I usually take one or the other. My docs don't mind that I have been on them more or less for about 5 years now ( I had other issues before B.C.).
You need your rest. Don't be afraid to ask your onc. or G.P. for meds.

all the best
