Hi - I am new to the group. Diagnosed with TM in 2010 and struggle with extreme fatigue. I have used Provigil and Nuvigil for the last year. The medication gives me a better quality of life. I still have fatigue, but it does help me make it through the day. The only struggle I have had is with insurance. They are very hesitant to pay, because it is a very expensive medication. I finally got it approved, but it took a while.
Good luck!!!! ________________________________ From: Dalton Garis [mailto:malugss...@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, July 19, 2012 9:32 AM To: bobberino; Cindy McLeroy; Susan Kleinz; celr...@aol.com Cc: tmic-l...@eskimo.net Subject: [TMIC] Re: Provigil for TM? Fellow sufferers; Have any of you heard of Provigil? Used for narcolepsy, it has found use by MS patients to counter the extreme fatigue common with MS; and our situation is often similar in some respects. I get this fatigue, sometimes so bad that I stumble from lunch, slurring my speech, and collapse on anything available and must be carried to a bed. Would Provigil be useful??
