Need help can’t sleep!!
Posted , 2 users are following.
I went to the ER for a simple MRI scan, the doctors told me there will be one with and without contrast. I jokingly mentioned to the doctor I vomited the last time they gave me contrast. He said aww well give you something for that, this is when they injected COMPAZINE into my IV. I had the most dreadful side effects from this medication, severe anxiety wanting to tare the IV out and just run!. Luckily I was able to get through the whole ordeal and get sleep when I arrived home. Maybe it was the benadryl they gave me along with this medicine. Just now while writing this I haven’t been to sleep since 8am yesterday. And I’ve been trying to naturally but I keep feeling restless. Doctors are no help I need answers, I’m having random twitches too is my life over,? Did this medicine mess me up forever?

not to worry! Compazine will mostly be out of your system in 2 to 4 days. It will not mess you up. drink lots of water to help flush it out. It’s good to be hydrated anyway. The muscle twitches are from the anxiety you were going through. They are very common and harmless. when I can’t get to sleep I take melatonin which is a natural product. Just be careful not to take too much. you might want to check with your doctor first. Also, to really settle down to sleep, I go to YouTube and listen to some really relaxing meditation for sleep or just for relaxation. It takes your mind off of things and help you to get a good nights sleep. Do some long slow deep breathing. Do things that naturally relax you . you’re going to be OK! Take care and relax!
