Dexadrine? It's speed! At least, back in the 60's it was one of those street drugs that commanded a lot of requests. Now it's a Category IV amphetamine so cannot be refilled. That's OK because I use it so rarely...like on days like I just had. I'd be wiped just thinking about what I had to do, take the med and within an hour, I was just doing without feeling any side effects other than a sense that I was thinking more clearly and working more efficiently and not totally cratered. Amantadine was my first anti-fatigue and I did not feel it helped at all but it seems to work really well for some people.

I hope Peg joins us soon. I miss her.

Which blood count was 10.8? White blood count? If so, it could mean that you are anticipating an infection or are fighting something low grade. I remember way back when 12,000 was the upper limit of normal and now it's 10,000. Good luck with the Novantrone. Know what? I haven't seen a Novantrone check in thread here like the old forum had. You might consider starting one and get input from folks who've actually taken that drug.
