Sleeping a lot

[positiveness]

Greetings everyone!

So I have had my ocrevus infusion last Wednesday and I sleep about 12 hours at night. Is that common? I realize it hasn't even been a week yet, but I am just wondering. Curiosity!

positiveness Everyone reacts differently with Ocrevus. Some report insomnia, others, like you, say that they sleep a lot. Have you discussed this with your medical team? As for me, I cannot note any changes in my sleep patterns, but it doesn't mean that Ocrevus is not the cause for your sleepiness.

Thank you so much for your advice. It looks like I really have to be more patient. I mean my whole immune system is changing, after all.

Yes, it is, and like you, I hope for the better

Wow! I should try that! I'm taking 1 benedryl at night to get me to sleep for 7-8 hours!
