RE: I miss reading books. Medicare and Provigil -Netty

[Guest guest]

Oh I've tried it Netty but thanks for writing.:-)

It helps with *alertness*, but nothing else. It doesn't wake one up like say

amphetamines do. I didn't want to take amphetamines anyway, because I have high

blood pressure *and* I used to over do amphetamines years ago.

But with Provigil If I didn't already get enough sleep,the night before it didnt

help I mean I was *awake* but not real alert or clear headed--matter of fact I

felt crazy and weird mentally. :-/.

This happened at least twice, and it felt really terrible...as though I was

going crazy.

So I'm back to wondering what to do. I took Ritalin once or twice many years

ago and it's not exactly an amphetamine but very similar, so I am wondering if I

could even try *it* again.

Re: I miss reading books. Re: Medicare and Provigil

OK, thank you then, for that information.

I have Silverscript myself, which currently does *not* cover Provigil.

Since there's usually plusses and minuses with all the different Medicare

rx coverages, I never bothered switching before.

So thank you for letting me know.
