In reply to REM first: classic sign of Narcolepsy - chk it out, posted by awake at last on August 2, 2002, at 11:48:37
Thanks for the info. I just may get it checked out. I don't like getting such things checked out, though, because as a female and a psychiatric patient I have been given the "hypochondriac" treatment too often. In fact, I spoke to at least one doctor about this in the past and was told: "You can't have sleep apnea. This is because 1. You are not male 2. you are young and 3. you are not obese." Great diagnotic skills, huh?
Anyway, when you said that learning to manage your narcolepsy has a made a big difference, what do you mean? Do you mind saying what you do to manage it?
