chronic fatigue syndrome
"I have been on Temodar 315 mg for 5 days once a month maximum dose of Avastin every other week for 8 months and will continue 4 more months before going on just Avastin.  I had a cancerous brain tumor removed then radiation.  All of these treatments cause "profound fatigue," yet no relief for this is covered by insurance. Physically I can function fine except for the fatigue.  My condition is not really curable at this point in time, but I want to at least be able to do something with the time I have left, even if it's nothing more than take a walk with my wife.  150 mg daily of Nuvigil has allowed me to do this.  Medicare nor supplement cover it.  Ritalin shot my blood pressure up to 200/100 and a trip to the ER."
