Took the Provogil when I picked it up around noon or so. It's a low dose the pharmacist said. 100 mg.
I guess it worked, but I really have to take it first thing in the AM. Because I am not tired at all now, and it's 10:30 pm, but I haven't taken my BP meds yet, so that will make a difference. Everything is fine with Dirk and I. Just an argument, words said, we talked, all worked out, hey it's normal to have a blow out or argument now and then, good actually - clears the air. My cousin is home, all went ok, she will know more tomorrow, she has to call the surgeon, she was real groggy and out of it when I talked to her when she got home. Hugs, Nikko |

Maybe chart your moods for a bit? That way you can look back and see if the new med is effecting you at all. It's hard to see our own imbalances sometimes.
Just a suggestion. I am glad your cousin is ok. That must help a little with your stress. I know she is more like a sister to you. |

That's good idea. I did wake up once last night, which is better, doesn't make sense though since I took the Provogil in the afternoon.
Took it at 6am this morning. Feel pretty good. Went to bed at 11:30. I was thinking maybe I was going to bed too early. Dirk does because he as to be up at 5am. I was always an early to bed, unless a show I wanted to see was on, or I was out. My cousin didn't even know what was going on with the tumors on her uterus, I got it wrong before saying it was her ovaries. She also had a D & C and her tubes tied. She was really groggy and out of it. So, I will know more today, once she call's the surgeon, and me. I have my domestic violence session today....Yes, I still go, just not as much. I really have to, this is something that will never leave my mind. The bad thing is I think I tend to take it out on Dirk sometimes and he wouldn't hurt a fly. I need to stop that, I don't mean to, but after being assaulted and verbally abused, by my ex husband, I still have fear, it's an awful feeling. I guess I still have PTSD in some way. Well, Nov. 7th is the GYN specialist in ONGOLOGY, so that's on my mind, I hope when I get there and talk to her, I will be more at ease. I've got to say, things have to get better, since a year ago July with my ex and all, mom back in hospital, my surgery, my cousin's, now this new appt. I'm mentally at my wits end. Yet, I keep on truckin, what can you really do. Hugs to all, Nikko |

Glad that you worked things out with Dirk.
You have one heck of a year...so many stressors...I would be in a mental hospital I think with all that you put up with....if that happened to me. Keeping my fingers crossed for the provigil...hope it works for you! take care my friend. (((HUGS))) bizi

I surprized I am not in a mental hospital, but been there, done that, besides ending up in the ER more than I can count.
I really have too much, with my pets and mom and I am happy with Dirk, my firends, so I would rather try to cope as much as I can and stay strong as I can, not just for me, but for them. OH, don't get me wrong, I sure have my moments to say the least, but they pass. I have a real hard time with the HOLIDAYS, last Xmas I ended up in the ER. back East a few times too. I am hoping this year I don't get depressed and can enjoy them, will see. p.s. One thing I could REALLY use a vacation or getaway. Dirk has a top up camper, so we might do that on a lake soon for a night, it has everything in it, and I could take one of my dogs. Hugs, Nikko |
