I take lorazapem 3xaday 0.5, lamictal at bedtime and nighttime and remeron. are these safe together
Your sleeplessness could be because of multiple reason: diagnosis of cancer and its psychological impact, chemotherapy and its side effect related consequences etc
Sleeplessness is also a symptom of bipolar
I presume that with continuation of the drugs that you are prescribed by your doctor, over 1 month period, you should be O.K
