Nuvigil -

[tl-tr3]

Recently prescribed Nuvigil for fatigue & my insurance agreed to pay for it .

I didn't like adding another medication but I was having trouble managing my job because of fatigue and I have to maintain my insurance for as long as I can.

I was hoping to only to take it " as needed " for my fatigue , but I quickly found out I need it everyday.

I tried to get by one day this week without it , because I felt fairly well in the morning, but I regretted it by about 2PM at work. I felt totally wiped out, which was my "normal" before the Nuvigil.

Another plus beside making it thru my work day, is not having to sleep -nap- on weekend days. I can actually have a "normal" day.

It was asked how people manage fatigue & I
thought I'd share my experience here.

Be well everyone.

I take Provigil and it is the difference between being able to work at a good job full-time, or being unemployed and unemployable. I live a pretty "normal" life with it, and life would be much different for the worse without it.

Two terrific drugs that are really life-changers for many people. I also follow all the "sleep hygiene" rules too.

I am glad Nuvigil is working for you. I understand that 2pm feeling.
