Sorry about your doctor, but I do understand. It took me more than a year to get my Pdoc to give me something for the afternoon fatigue. It was so bad that I HAD to take a nap; it really wasn't an option. I take Cymbalta so I figured that was the problem.
My Pdoc was so resistant, but finally gave me Provigil. I take 100mg a day, and it has helped a lot. Now, I can take a nap if I want to, but I don't feel like I'm going to fall over if I don't.
Sometimes docs don't believe how serious this problem can be--I don't know why, but extreme tiredness can be so debilitating mentally and physically in many ways.
Maybe you should try another doctor.
best,
antigua
