Default newbie mestinon questions

I'm looking for input.

I'm taking Mestinon 30mg/ 3times a day. Its been five days.

Wearing off - seems to wear off after 3-4 hours? Why would it say take at least 6 hours apart if it wears off after 3-4 hours?

How soon after your first dose do you notice it working? I think I noticed improvement within the first hour. All my symptoms improved.

Side effects - fatigue after about 2hrs of taking a pill. I've been thinking this is me not getting good coverage. Or is that my body getting used to the medication? After taking the next dose seems to make it better.

Sticking my neck out there again....
Love this group.
Thanks,
Jen
