Just got AHI (24), waiting on CPAP

... fatigue got much much worse. Almost crippling to me. A zombie. So a year went by and I basically ignored treatment for it other than Provigil + Nuvigil. But then it occurred to me.

... years, but I'm still often drowsy during the day (so I'll nod off if sitting too long). And that's even with the daily use of Armodafinil (generic Nuvigil, at maximum dosage.

Modafinil is the only reason I get through the day. I take it 7 days a week.
