No crash and burn at the end of the day, just a need to take it early enough to let it clear my system before bedtime.

I was seriously planning on switching to Provigil once it's generic in the U.S. - can you provide more info on its downside?
For me it feels like a heavy weight has been put on my physically. I get the same feeling if I drink way too much coffee. Suddenly I'm out of energy and wiped out and almost have a hangover feeling. In writing it sounds like the MS fatigue but it's a much heavier feeling for me. It's hard to explain exactly how I feel so I hope I'm making at least a little sense!

MS debilitating fatigue attacks are not hard to explain to us who have had them, K.

I'm not talking just the ordinary fatigue from operating in a weak body. I'm talking about when you can't hold your head up.
