I have a sleep study coming up next Sunday and Monday. The doctor thinks I have narcolepsy. I have been having trouble driving and had to take a leave of absence from work, because I was falling asleep while driving. Right now, I just drive for small trips to the local grocery store. My husband does all the other driving. I am just wondering if they are going to take away my driver’s license, or will the medicine make it possible for me to drive long distances (20 minutes to 1 hour), so I can go back to work.

I was recently diagnosed with sleep apnea ( a moderate one). I was planning to get my driver’s license since I’m 18, but then the doctor didn’t recommend it…

Does anyone know whether or not you can get a driver’s license if you have sleep apnea? (Oh, I live in California by the way, if there are different laws…)

Also, if you do have sleep apnea, and you do drive, do you have any problems? Or have anyone ever told you that it’s better if you don’t drive because you’re constantly sleepy?
