Default How soon after starting meds did things change?

I just want to feel like I can stay awake for longer than an hour. I wouldn't mind losing a few pounds too.

For me it took a while (3-6 months) to notice a difference in the way I felt physically. I wouldn't doubt if my numbers on paper improved faster. There can be a lag between treatment hitting the right level and a person feeling better.

When I was diagnosed I would have never thought I had anything wrong. I started thinking back to when my DH and I took walks sometimes I would feel so lethargic I could barely take steps.

Within a little over a few weeks I started noticing a difference in my fatigue level. So I think it did help a little. In a month my level will be retested.
