Profound fatigue

Yesterday, I had debilitating fatigue all day. I was forced to sleep or rest the entire day (even on 200 mg Provigil). It is so frustrating. But I am very grateful that the headache intensity has dialed back down to the usual level. I slept for 12 hours last night, and the fatigue is back today. I have to find a way to take a bath and go to teach a lesson. Searching for any ounce of energy in my weighed-down body.

I am so honored by the number of people interested in the Chiari Walk this year. The walk will be September 26th at 31 sites across the country, including one in Palatine, Illinois. I'll include the information here for anyone else interested:
