I eat 1-2 cups of spinach every day for breakfast. In the afternoon, I eat 1-2 cups of kale. My greens give me energy, better than anything else. If I miss either, I notice a huge difference in my energy level.
I use genesis pure-energy powdered drink mix. i drink it once a day. keeps me going doesn't give me the energy drink jitters and crash. its a mite expensive though. But cheaper then meds and nutritious.
The doctor put me on venlafaxine. I take in morning after breakfast seems to help get me thru the day and I sleep much better
@MsJewls i have the same issue with my fatigue. I asked the same question awhile back. I researched alot of them. The Modafinil seems to have awesome reviews from MS ppatients. I do know adderal works well, but it's very additive! I see my pain management doc today and the Modafinil is what I'm asking for..
Hope this helps some! (((HUGS)))
I have taken the modafinil for years. Tried amantadine but got severe headaches and wasn't as good as the modafinil for me . I also take 1200mcg of B12 and two Vitamin D daily. It's important that you rest. Listen to your body. At one time that's all I did was sleep. I couldn't even hold my head up or drive my standard stick shift. Got my rest and traded in my standard for an automatic. I've slowed down and try to eat healthier. I still have days where I just rest but it makes a difference than fighting the fatigue. Ask for modafinil....I hope it works for you.
