Another sleepless night

Kimima

Hi. This is my first post on the forum. Is anyone else not sleeping? I've got secondary breast cancer. Due to start some palliative chemo shortly.

It's pain keeping me awake. I'm on morphine but it doesn't seem to be working. Has anyone else experienced this?

    HI Kimima,

    A very warm welcome to the forum.

    I am so sorry to hear that you've been diagnosed with secondary breast cancer and that your pain is preventing you from sleeping at night. Please contact your specialist breast care nurse and let her know that the morphine is not helping you. There are alternative drugs which might work better for you.

    Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.

    Kind regards,
