Trip to the neurologist
I am going to my neurologist today. I needed a form filled out by him that has to be within 30 days of my last appointment. Of course my last appointment was in the beginning of July so I had to come in again. Yet this probably isn’t a bad thing because I can once again address the exhaustion. I felt so tired yesterday I got into my bed around 6. My body was just so tired I couldn’t fight anymore. It helped to be in that laid out position and I watched tv in bed. By 8 I was sleeping.
I really hope we can appeal the denial on provigil. I still find it amazing it was denied. Last time he discussed Ritalin but that drug makes me nervous. The only thing that appeals to me is the side effect of weight loss. I’d rather take a drug I’m familiar with and have had a history taking. I just need something to get me through this exhaustion spell. Fatigue is really a horrible feeling. I dread getting up even to go to the bathroom.
Well I guess we will see when I go there. It is an afternoon appointment because I made it last minute. Tomorrow I’m back to the gastroenterologist to update on the current meds he put me on. Sometimes I feel like all I do is go to the doctor.

Hi, I am sure you are already aware of the programs pharm companies have to pay for your meds when insurance cannot. I cannot take nuvigil nor provigil because of how ampy they make me feel. For the past several months I have been using a true water based CBD daily tincture that has done wonders for my fatigue and cognition problems. Please, feel free to reach out to me to learn more – Best – Dix
Thanks Dix I actually just saw that on your Instagram. I’m surprised it helped with fatigue. My doctor is doing an appeal and prescribed something else. I’m still hoping for the provigil
