Hey everyone! Happy Monday!!

I just wanted to check in with everyone to (hopefully) say that I will no longer be posting about how tired I am.....and I am probably jinxing myself by saying this lol....My PDoc started me on 100mg of Provigil last Tuesday and I have felt pretty good for the first time in 2 years. I have had energy during the day where I dont want to go back to bed, and I have actually been physically and mentally tired when my head hits the pillow in the evening, making for a sound sleep without having to take my usual sleep meds.....I continue to pray before my eyes close every night for this to keep on working, and also to thank God that it has actually worked so far. And also to thank God that there is a drug program where I live that helps cover most of the cost, although I hear they went generic so thats an option too.....I just wanted everyone to know that I have had good luck, so if anyone is fatigued out of their freakin mind like I was, this is a wonderdrug (so far) for me! Have a great evening everyone!!

Thats really good news and I'm glad you shared. I'm also glad that the drs are able to find the right medications that suits the individual. Its almost like being free of the prison that has kept us from the world our lives untill now. What could top that?!

I am honestly happy for you good luck.

That is great news! I've wanted to get on Provigil but haven't been able to get my hands on it yet.
I'm glad you are feeling awake.
