Can't stay awake

4 Replies

Hi everyone,

Hope your are doing well. Im having a strange time at present where I can't seem to stay awake. I've been on Uniphylline for a couple of weeks now and I'm down to 15mg steroids a day but I just seem to be sleeping all the time.

Has anyone else felt like this??

Hope your doing ok xxxx

Hi MooMoo, My asthma a right pain at the moment,just not settling down at all xxx

Hi,

Just to sympathies with you MooMoo. Sorry you feel so tired, its rubbish and really interferes with life. I've really struggled with being tired all the time over the past few years.

It could be the steroids or your asthma being out of control but it might be worth going to your GP to get a blood test to make sure it's nothing else and to check your asthma over if he/she feels its that.
