Tom,
If you take something and you are feeling worse you have two options. The obvious one is to stop taking it. The other, which many doctors opt for, is if you believe you need to take this substance is to find another substance that will address the side effects of the first. Like taking Taurine to counter the DHA anxiety in fish oil.
Personally I don't think 1g is a HUGE dose. I would recommend backing off or stopping for a few days and re-evaluate.
For fatigue have you tried RIBOSE? It has been sending ripples through the CFS/FMS community as something that is helping a large percentage with energy issues. I have personally taken it and recommend it. Ribose is a 5-carbon sugar that is a building block for ATP.
From that page:
"D-Ribose... is an outstanding new nutrient (a special sugar-even OK for those who need to avoid sugar!) for those of you who want a powerful energy boost! In addition to its role in making DNA and RNA, those of you familiar with biochemistry remember Ribose as the key building block for making energy. In fact, the main energy molecules (like “Energy dollars”) in your body (ATP, FADH, etc.) are made of ribose plus B vitamins/phosphate. That makes these energy molecules similar to the paper that money is printed on- kind of like being able to print your own energy currency!"
