Provigil is AWESOME!
I have had extreme fatigue over the past year and finally my doc puts me on the wonder drug..Provigil. I love it.
When they gave it to me, they said.."Oh, you're going to feel like you just drank 2-3 cups of coffee". Well, having never drank a cup of coffee in my entire life, I didn't know what to expect.
The first two days I took it..I was flying. I was shaking and talking a mile a minute. It was scary, but hilarious!
Now, Ive been on it for a month and I don't know how I could get by without it. (I dont shake or have the jitters anymore ) I no longer have the extreme fatigue, and I can focus more and concentrate. I can get through daily life without feeling like crap all of the time.
If anyone is considering it...do it! Its good stuff!

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

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...
I too, love my Provigil. It has never made me jittery. I can even take a nap if I want to.
I am in love with Provigil. I want to marry Provigil.
I take two aspirin/day. I have no fatigue since I started doing this.
However I still get fatiqued and can sleep ........
