until you go all the way off that's why we said now would be a good time to jump..once you jump  diarrhea may last a few days .For some the sleeplessness can take awhile I would exercise everyday it can help with the sleep.

how long is awhile just curios

[avisg]

a few weeks before you are sleeping as well constantly it took me 4 weeks before I slept great again but I got sleep before that point it just tended to be broken i would sleep a few hours then be up for an hour or two and go back to sleep.
