Provigil OT (neuropathy)
Chronic fatigue is one of the fun results of my neuropathy. I have
*Bells Palsy* I did try many different meds, including neuroleptics
that *could* end up giving me more problems. In the end, after my
illnesses, I gave up on many of the drugs. I found that the side
effects were not worth the benefit...in this case.
Perhaps it was just my physician, but some of the side effects were
misdiagnosed as another problem from my head injury and I was put on a
medication for that misdiagnosis that could have caused more health
problems.
Just my opinion, but I think that drug therapy should be a team effort
between Dr., patient, and pharmacist. Know what you are taking, keep a
log. If I had followed directions I could have been on up to 11
different meds at the same time. I do not think that this was
responsible on my Dr.'s part.
