Hi Faith
I had this problem too. The first
night was the worst one. My chemo
nurse suggested taking an Ativan at
bedtime - it did help me sleep but my
husband told me that my arms and legs
moved all night - like I was running a
marathon. I am careful with the Ativan
and only took it for the first few nights
after a treatment.

Hope you find something that helps. You
need your sleep. Good luck with this.
