I was dx with TM 2004 & used Provigil for extreme fatigue. Took the med about 6 months & it helped, but stopped because of bad side effects. I could not sleep more than 2-3 hours a night because it kept me awake & it really made me foggy in thinking. Nothing has really helped since. Just try to pace myself, avoid going out in the heat, & some days just have to live in my recliner when fatigue is very bad. Linda E.

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?? Who has heard of this med? Dalton H. Garis Flushing, Queens New York, USA Mobile: 718-838-0437 Landline: 917-285-2047
