I've been taking Indocin for painful tendonitis in my left heel. It's been a miracle drug. My heel, my back, everything feels so much better. But I can hardly stay awake. Well, there's a price for everything. I googled side effects of Indocin. I saw article after article citing drowsiness as a side effect.

I am weary of my caretaking duties, and I know depression makes getting out of bed hard, but this trouble I'm having staying awake seems like something new. I'm not sure. But I think it's the Indocin.

Tomorrow I won't take it, and I'll see what happens. I have to wake up enough to get things done.

My bf is doing pretty good. He tries to be nice. I'm glad he's still here.
You can also try natural things to help you feel more energized - that way you don't need to give up the thing that is helping you so much. It is just an idea though. Surely your choice what you want to do. ❤
