Thank-you. I took medrol when I had Covid and I haven't been able to sleep since without meds. Also my mild anxiety turned into severe anxiety. Thanks for your well wishes. I’m grateful.

Hello cmd....I took Paxlovid when I had Covid and since then have had more sleep problems and more worse anxiety....I really dont want to be dependent on Ambien...but I took it 5 or 6 nights in a row and then the 1st night I didn't take it I woke up with bad anxiety and kind of sweaty...like you'd get with withdrawal.....I don't want to take ambien if it causes this....I took Flurazepam for many years... but only once or twice a week....and never had bad side effects or had to increase dosage.....Ambien is a way far more addictive drug.....I sure hope Flurazepam comes back
