 It's called Provigil. I'm so happy with my new doctor up here. There is actually a center for neurological disorders up here that specializes in MS, and he wanted me to try this stuff. The first week, I was like the Energizer Bunny! It was so nice to have my life back! I can go to the grocery store or Target or something, and not be completely bagged halfway through. See if maybe your neurologist might try you on it for awhile. I'm pissed my old doctor didn't even try it. Another friend of mine with this says she's been on it for a few years and swears by it.
