Oopsie...dosage, etc.
Wow, Duva, definitely sounds like your daughter has been thru the gamut of meds....glad you/she found something that worked! And am glad to hear the provigil helps with putting your thoughts together. I'm not sure if it is helping with that. I'm just trying to function - in the most basic sense - who cares if I make "sense" lol.
Oopsie...I forgot to put the dosage of provigil....I'm also on 400mg of provigil. I can also take it and go right back to sleep. I also just re-read something - and provigil is and isn't for ADHD. It was made for narcolepsy....however, an official off-label use for it is for ADHD. I remember one of the first few days that I took it - and I was in Staples (an office supply store) - and was in the pen aisle - and I was totally tripping out b/c I couldn't focus on anything (not visually - though that was an issue, too) - but there was so much stimulation, I was bugging out) - and I totally thought - this is giving me ADHD! 
I'm definitely going to ask my neuro about the daytrana. Sounds worth a try... (Of course, at this point, I'm so , , , , , , , , , , , , and , etc. that I will try probably anything, even if it means that I will grow a rat's tail!) 
I'll let you know. Of course, I have hours to go.... My puppy woke me up in the middle of the night AGAIN. Yes, I was given a puppy for Xmas....she arrived a week before the diagnosis came - right before my flare-up hit it's worst. I can barely take care of myself, let alone a puppy and am at my wit's end (see icons above!!). I nearly fall over every time I have to pick up a wee-wee pad. Especially at 5am.
