Linda, what do you take the Nuvigil for - exhaustion? And it really helps? I may talk to my doc and see about using it too. I do have times when it is like a blanket descending on me and I just don’t want to move any more and I realize I am just too tired. Usually I will rest for a while when that happens, but I push pretty hard during the day staying busy. I absolutely hate the warmth of summer. I hate heat. I want to feel really cool all the time, requiring a blanket for comfort. Janice

The hotter it gets, the worse the fatigue. Sometimes I spend the day in my recliner. I have lost 8 pounds (YEA!) this summer, but it is because of the fatigue & it has just been too hot to eat. My PCP started me on a drug called Nuvigil a week ago & it is working wonders. This is a newer version of the Provigil that I took about 5 years ago, but Provigil kept me awake 22 hours a day. No side effects with the new drug. Of course it is one of the new drugs not covered by insurance, but I figure I can afford it at least until it cools off here (East Texas). We are expecting temperatures to finally hit highs only in the 80's next week. Take care, Linda E. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "heyjude48...@aol.com" <heyjude48...@aol.com> To: tmic-list@eskimo.com Sent: Wednesday, September 18, 2013 12:51 PM Subject: [TMIC] Re: TM & Exhaustion Hi Friends, Are any of you suffering with exhaustion? I am so tired all of the time that I can't stand it. What do you do to rid yourself of this malady? I hope that you have had a nice summer and you are looking forward to a beautiful fall. Winter will soon be here and it will be freezing cold here in Michigan. How does your TM make you feel in the cold weather? I love you, Jude
