I don't know that Provigil enhances memory. But I have a job that involves a lot of strait memorization, (as much as acting) and I'm doing much better on the Provigil (~5 mo.) I feel like I have the use of my brain back. Even the people I work with have noticed a difference. [I feel like Robert Deniro in "Sleepers". (but I still fall asleep at the computer at work.)]

I don't think it is enhanced, but my recall is as good as it was when I was 16, before all the Narcolepsey symptoms started kicking in.

It may just be, that on the Provigil, I'm able to take care of myself better and get to the grocery store for fresh veggies, vitamins, etc..
