That's why I only take benadryl at bedtime....and sometimes for its sleep-inducing benefits.aliantha wrote:MsMary -- good luck! I took Benadryl briefly when it was still prescription-only, while trying to find a drug that would help me long-term. Benadryl does nothing for my nose, but it does promptly put me to sleep.

In other news, my knee is killing me. I came home from dancing and put ice on it, which is helping a lot. I am planning a week of rest (I don't have to work this week, and I'll skip dancing) in the hopes it will get better. Maybe some ibuprofen, though I am leery, as that stuff is not kind to my stomach.
