Same here, Holly. I could fall asleep using Provigil. The A.D.D. meds can also cause a racing heart and other problems.

Let us know if you try one of the A.D.D. meds.

I've not done well on it so far but only took approx 3X. Last time I got the spins....I just took one to see reaction. Get bk to u on that. If it wks it is supposed to improve cog too. just tossing at an idea. Wishing u the best Hun.

Hi, Sheena! Where have you been or is it me that hasn't been around

I am sorry your having cognitive problems

Did your prescribing doctor start you out at a low dose of Adderall, if not he/she should have. Sometimes you can get better results from the A.D.D. meds if you see a Psychiatrist - these drugs are their specialty.

I am looking at the Focalin to help with cog problems not fatigue. Unfortunately, for me, I don't know the exact source of my cog problems....to many variables in my case.
