"Each person needs to study the facts before deciding for a test such as this."
How much would a genetic test like that cost, and do insurance companies generally pay for such tests? Also, are the symptoms of narcolepsy similar to sleep apnea? If you are unaware of 'microsleeping' during the day, for example, would you feel similar as a person who has obstructive or central sleep apnea?
I don't suspect I have narcolepsy-I've just been interested in sleep 'stuff' since I was a child as I've always been such a light sleeper/chronic hyperarousal, and am a chronic lucid dreamer; I also have migranes. My father was a very light sleeper too, had migranes, anxiety, and he died very young.
