SO MAD!

Posted by Leah on May 17, 2001 at 10:34:10:

ok, I do agree with you all that I need a new doc for this. but my insurance is funny, and it may be dificult. My doc finally called me back. all she said was that she was going to take me off the provigil, and put me on a ridalin. I took aderal for a while, and she said. "well you do ok on that, except for falling asleep in the car." YEAH! DUH DOC G. ISN'T THAT THE WHOLE POINT HERE!!!!! how stupid is that guys!? UUUUURRRRRRRRGGGGG!!!!! I will be looking for a doc soon. My mom has a friend who is a nerologist, so I might start there. In the mean time, do any of you have any suggestions on what I should do in the mentime about the sleep attacks? Especially at work. If I lay down at my breaks, I end up sleeping an hour. If I were to get caught, I would most definantly get fired. I have tried everything I can think of. I drink lods of cafeen, I take no-doze, but still I fall asleep. HELP!!!!
