I take amphetamine salt combo (adderall) 15 mg 1 - 2x daily. My neuro says I vibrate when I'm on it. It was a very hard drug for me to handle at first. I got a "high" from it. I started out on 5 mg and worked my way up. Sometimes I split it in half. It helps with my fatigue very well. I lost all the weight I gained from the TM over the years!
I'm actually trying to wean off it now, because I want to go back on Provigil, which my new insurance covers with approval. The side effects can take a toll on you. I get too hyper. I suppose it's not a good drug to be on for years anyways. Provigil worked well for me and I didn't have any side effects. Sandy Brassil Accounting Assistant Alveolus, Inc.

Larry Throne, MSW ________________________________ From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "TMIC List" <[email protected]> Subject: [TMIC] fatigue Date: Sun, 24 Jun 2007 17:17:51 -0400 It is probably too late to be writing this since my neuro appt. is in the morning but I wanted to ask: has anyone had any type of meds that actually helped with fatigue? I read on this list from several still talking about their fatigue so I know it is a problem with many as it is me. I am still working and, as my Dr. says, I am in "limbo" (still o.k. enough to work yet having a hard time doing it but not bad enough for disability). Prescriptions I have tried have only been for spacisity and didn't help with fatigue. Any ideas I could present to him?
