I don't understand how they can all of a sudden decide they won't cover "off label" uses for medications, when they have been paying for this medication for six years!

I too watched dr oz, montel show and will be going to mothers market to purchase "cocoawell" which is the energy tea he mentioned during the show.

I guess this is another way to describe the fatigue associated with ms, it's so great, you don't have the energy to fight or the cognitive endurance to form an eloquent argument. I'll let you know how the tea works.
Provigil is now availabe as generic and maybe you can afford it without insurance. Goodluck. I'll have to look for the tea.
