bed wetting

xyrem has bed wetting on the side effects list.

For the record, I do not wet the bed on xyrem and if I did it would still be worth taking. I did have some of that when I was without treatment. I was just so sleep deprived and mested up.

I will chime in as well because I know the possibility of that side effect deters many people from trying it. It happened one time in 10 months. It wasn't the end of the world and I was coming down with a stomach flu so that may have been a variable. I couldn't imagine going back to life before Xyrem...I really, really don't work for the company!

It has happened to me once in 12 months. I knew it was a possibility so I wasn't freaked out. On another note, unfortunately my thyroid doctor and neuro. are taking me off of Xyrem for a while and putting me on Ambien CR . Also taking me off Adderall XR, they think my blood pressure and fast pulse rate, and worsening tremors may be these two meds interfering with a high dose of thyroid med. So it will be back to mega doses of caffine and 5 hr energy drinks

Actually, even though you've admitted to it, and I believe I recall someone else bringing it up, you've actually made me feel better in that it's only been single incidents. I was more concerned about a potential ongoing thing.

Dan can get over a freak occurence. Stranger things have happened to both of us unrelated to medications!
