He has got MS. Not too serious and he still has more energy than most folk without, but he has been working to set up a business for 2 years and he has to put in some long days.

I wonder what dose he was on today.Originally posted by Old Hack View PostNot at all true. 200mg, a medium dose, keeps you alert and awake all day, with little side effects. I've taken 400mg, but it made me anxious, and kept me awake for a much longer time than needed.Comment
