Insomnia

[Smartcloud1981]

I had my second 1/2 of ocrevus earlier this week. I was wondering from anyone who has done ocrevus if they had any side effects from the steroids they give during the infusion. I haven’t been able to sleep much since if I remember correctly this happened after the first infusion also.

The first night i could not sleep from the steroids but it passed after that night.

I haven't had any problems.

One thing I have noticed is that when I have gone for my past 2 infusions( last thursday and this past thursday) for my iron they haven't been able 2 find a vein willing to give up blood.

After my I infusion I did my blood work 3 months later for b cell and had no issues

I had a bit f trouble falling asleep, and staying asleep, the first night after the O infusion. After that, I reverted back to my 'normal' sleeping habits.

It is the steroids they give you but they are gone by the next night.
