Well done Jeffn - what a lovely feeling for you - knowing that you are getting better!! Tell us how you know!

I picked up the provigal yesterday. I have looked at it and looked at it again. You know what - I am scared - I am scared that it might not work and I am scared that it might bring back the bad headaches. I never used to be scared of anything pre head injury. I would like to think that I was a tough smart know all - hopefully a nice one though!

Anyway I am going to take the first tablet on Boxing Day as we have decided that we are all going to go to the one day cricket test which is going to be here in Auckland. NZ playing Bangladesh - don't think you play cricket in the US. I shall also take something that I can use as a pillow as there will be plenty of spare seats for me to sleep across if I need to. My daughter and I made the Christmas pudding today complete with 1/2 cup of rum in it!

Not heard from you for a while Lori and PCS McGee - hope you are both OK - PCS McGee you are very quiet - are you alright ?

Lynlee

You know what? If it does bring on a headache, you can just quit taking it. I'd suggest messing around with the dosage before you quit altogether. But this drug won't have long-term affect on you from what I understand.

PS- I'm fine, just had to get a project out the door at work by Friday (and I did!) so was putting in some extra hours.

I'm beat!

HI. I am a wimp aren't I????

Anyway, fantastic news.

My step daughter is a Dr of Neurology at a UK University, and I have had her looking into the provigil and she has had the HOD looking at it as well AND - she thinks it is made for me.

Lori she thinks that for your headaches - just as you thought - maybe you were on the wrong dosage.

She also said this morning after studying up a little more that some research had shown that it may actually assist repair!!!! Wow!!!

I would hug you Lori if I could!!!!

And Jeffn you are so amazingly calm and rational - are you always on your best behaviour when posting?

Lynlee

Wow- your stepdaughter is a neuro? Lucky you! You don't have to worry about trusting what any ol' neuro tells you. You can confirm it with your stepdaughter!

Gosh I'm so glad that my experience might potentially help someone else. That makes me feel just great. I hope that this drug gives you EXACTLY what you need.

Hugs,
Lori
