hello all,
i have been taking provigil for several years now, and i have noticed that if i miss a dose, i can barely function without it. there has been a time or two when i ran out before i could get a refill, and it was like night of the living dead for me. i could hardly drag myself out of bed to do what i needed to do. i can't remember if the fatigue was that bad before i went on it or not. i'm just wondering if anyone else has had this same experience.
thanks!

The first several weeks...I did great. Now I believe it is making me sick to my stomach. However, there are a lot of people who have had great success with it. Good luck to you!

I haven't take provigil, I took phentermine which is more an appetite supressant but it does the same thing, I have friends that took provigil and they have said the same thing, they don't feel like they are even themselves if they miss a dose, The phentermine did the exact same thing, and it to made me queezy sometimes. I have always had trouble sleeping and have cfs so I was planning on trying provigil after my pregnancy

I am the same way. I can't live without taking it, at least I cannot function at all. I have chronic fatigue syndrome and I just cannot do without my provigil.

OK...went to the doc yesterday and she figured out my issue with provigil...I have ulcers. Provigil and ulcers are not friends.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
