Help Me To Sleep » Narcolepsy

Is a regular blood test good enough to see if you have Narcolepsy or thyroid problem.?

The Doc — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 09:13:43 +0000

When I was younger I use to sleep through out the night, but with talking, screaming, sleep walking on average. Now I have problems going to sleep and waking up several times per night. I can easily stay in bed 12 hours straight and still feel sleepy thought my day. I’ve gone to my doctor and had a blood test, but he says nothing wrong. Is a regular blood test good enough to see if you have Narcolepsy or thyroid problem.

Can anyone help me find a documentary on narcolepsy?

The Doc — Fri, 23 Jul 2010 09:14:04 +0000

In the UK a few years ago, there was a documentary about narcolepsy (the uncontrollable compulsion to fall asleep). For my psychology project part of it is to do with narcolepsy, and I would like to see this documentary again, but I don’t know where to find it. Can someone help me out?

Thank you

Living with Narcolepsy

Damien is a 21 year old narcoleptic who lives in York with his parents, who run an old fashioned guest house. His unusual condition has had a devastating impact on all of their lives. He often finds many of the things that we take for granted a real struggle: paying attention, learning, getting and keeping a job, communicating, sleeping (ironically).

Does anyone have Narcolepsy and an autoimmune disease?

The Doc — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 18:48:27 +0000

I’ve read that it’s believed Narcolepsy might be an autoimmune disease. I can’t find much new information on it, but wondered if there was anyone out there that had narcolepsy and an autoimmune disease?
I have narcolepsy without cataplexy and have developed a connective tissue disease so I’m looking for others with a possible link, or at least other information to see how likely they are related. I saw information about the relation prior to my autoimmune disease diagnosis (MCTD). Just looking into it more. Thanks for the information and sharing your conditions with me!

are there other diseases that have the same symptoms of narcolepsy?

I think my dad has narcolepsy. He can be awake one minute, then the next he’s asleep, this happens throughout the day, When he’s waking he has delusions and talks to people who aren’t there. Also recently he has been sleeping sitting up on the couch because he says he can’t sleep in his bed, and it has seemed to be worse since.
