Hey fibro friends, I am wondering if any of you are taking or have taken provigil (generic modafinil) for fatigue, mental alertness or fibro fog? I was looking at studies the other day, trying to find something that will help and came across a few small research studies for this medication. There were mixed reviews...for some it works, others not. Though it when it seems to work, it works well. (But then, tell me something new about every fibro treatment or regimen.) I am trying to work part time as I can't afford not to work, and my biggest issue is mental acuity. Trying to write a grant that would be a no brainer in the past and I can't focus. Email are a challenge as well. Heck, these posts take forever to write. I'm willing to try just about anything! I've asked my doc if she would do some research as prescribing it would be off label. Any thoughts?
