I am also new to the forum. I have been watching it for about a year. Up to this point I have just been reading and learning so much. I was diag. about 1 yr. ago with N. I have had memeory probs. for several years. More so, as time has gone by. I think it goes hand in hand with N. Also, I am Hypothyroid. I tried the provigil at two different times, about 9 months apart. I felt worse and exp. deep shoulder muscle pain, nervous, nausea, stupids, and a breathing weesing. Got off after 6 weeks each time. Dr. keeps telling me that it works for the rest of his patients, I find that really hard to believe. The first time I was taking 200 mg the second time I tried 100 mg. I was more awake but for me the bad effects were to many. I hope they will come up with something else. My dr will not try another drug. Another thing, I have had major probs with Math all the way back to 2 grade. I wonder now about all that. Just my thoughts
