Hello. My doctor has perscribed Nuvigil for me because I need help starting my day. I feel "dazed" in the mornings. It has gotten so bad that I don't dare try to drive in the morning, I've been in a few small accidents, just fender benders, no one injured thank God. I know I have sleep apnea, I've had it for some time now. I haven't taken the sleep test but I have the other symptoms, breathing stops, gasping for air while sleeping, this my wife tells me. My question is has anyone out there ever taken this drug before? What can I expect? Does it work? My pill is 250 mg. I don't think it's a narcotic so I don't think it could become habit forming. Oh, and I do take 10mg of Ambeim before bed. I don't need it to fall asleep, that I can do, but I need it for a solid sleep. Before the Ambeim, I'd wake after just a few hours and then can't fall back to sleep. So, has anyone else use this drug?
Thank you.
