For years now I have been loosing focus which is very bad for a programmer. I am also on meds for diabetes and blood pressure, both which are not good for focus. I am finding that 2x100 mg has given me my programming skill back by allowing me to focus on problems for hours.

For years now I have been loosing focus which is very bad for a programmer. I am also on meds for diabetes and blood pressure, both which are not good for focus. I am finding that 2x100 mg has given me my programming skill back by allowing me to focus on problems for hours. No trouble sleeping, not irritability, and no nervousness until I go to 300 mg per day. 200 mg is a high dose and I don't intend to stay there very long. I will cut back as my health comes back. Diabetes and blood pressure do not seem to be affected by this dosage, in fact they may be slightly improved with my higher levels of activity. It is good stuff, much better than caffeine, but be careful.

My fatigue is gone and I have energy all day but I'm very irritable and can't enjoy things. I'm also taking Lexapro, might be an interaction? I've taken 10mg for a week. Because of the side effects I'm stopping it.

At about age 55, I noticed that symptoms similar to female hot flashes. Within about 1 year, I was having difficulty maintaining an erection... Something that had never happened previously. My doctor gave me an Rx for Cialis and started me on DHEA 25mg at bedtime. I noticed the DHEA was keeping me awake and switched to taking it on awakening. Immediately, I had much more energy (how I NORMALLY felt years before). The energy lasted until shortly after lunch time. As such, I started taking another 25mg with lunch. This kept my energy levels normal most of the day. Mostly, I didn't take any DHEA in the evening so as not to affect my sleep. But if I was going out with friends in the evening, I would take an additional 25mg at about 4pm. I took this twice daily (occasional 3x daily) DHEA for about 5 years when I noticed that it no longer supplied any additional energy. My energy levels are now pretty much back to normal, which is probably why DHEA was not providing any additional energy. I've since stopped taking DHEA several months ago and have not noticed any drop in energy. If my energy levels should drop in the future, I will definitely try DHEA again. DHEA was incredibly useful when I was feeling fatigued.
