NEUPRO Pads and sleep can prove to be a very difficult combination

Many years ago I woke up one morning and felt in top shape, actually rested.

What in the world has happened I thought? This has never happened before.

Night sleep tends to be a nightmare.

Later I discovered that the NEUPRO patch had come loose from the skin and was in bed.

The next night I took off the NEUPRO patch at about 22:00 and the same thing happened, I slept well all night.

I took it up with the neurologist but it was wrong to remove the patch at night but I did it anyway and got my sleep back.

This is a few years ago and now it is probably common to take it off before nightfall,

Anyway, the accident that the patch fell off changed my life radically.

Do not recommend doing as I did without clarifying it with the neurologist first but some have a very large and positive effect of removing the patch before going to bed and put a new on in the mornning.

Good luck.
