But during this first couple of weeks, I would have sleep attacks, with cateplexy, my doc considered narcolepsy, but, again, the attacks went away after a few weeks. They were annoying, I felt a uncontrolable need for sleep, and would fall asleep just about anywhere..but just for a few moments..It was very strange, I would begin to dream almost immediately after my eyes closed!Wow! I found I just had to go back to bed yesterday. I then slept for another six hours. But it wasn't as sudden as you describe. That would be hard to deal with.
And oh yes...myoclonic jerks...my favorite--not. I get those everytime I lower the dose. Good thing my hubby is a very heavy sleeper!
Thanks,
