I think I have sleep apnea, I tought it was my heart but they’ve gave me a full work up and my heart is fine. I’m so sleepy during the day I can’t fuction, is there anything I can do to stay awake during the day, I sleep some through the night but not sure if its a deep sleep. I need help staying awake during the day on my job.
I Recently picked up a job as an EMT, and I have discovered that me sitting in the drivers cabin my right legs keeps falling asleep… My partner tells me that it is bad and should probably go see a doctor. So if anyone can help 
thanks.
I suffer from Insomnia, from as early as I can remember. I have tried alot of things like relaxation, not getting on the internet before bed time, reading a boring book, etc. I use Tylenol PM, (2) every night in order to get a good nights rest, even though I know that it is harmful to my liver. I have taken them for the past 4 years now. I am looking for other alternatives, herbal, home remedies, anything that will help with this problem. Thanks in advance!
Do I need a prescription for melatonin?
Wanted to mention also that sometimes I can fall sleep very easily. It is staying asleep that causes me the problems. I wake up every 20 minutes and just stare at the clock. I have wondered also why the Tylenol PM still works as it seems my body would not react to it any longer but without it, I could be up for days. I don’t drink coffee, tea, etc. Only water. I have seen 2 Doctors before and they tell me that if Tylenol works, continue on and that is what I am confused about. I don’t take any other medications just a vitamin in the mornings. I just don’t want to depend on them, like I have been. By the way, I have 2 Elementary aged children, full time business, and a job; so I have to function right everyday. Thanks everyone for your answers!

Would I lose my license? What would I do then, do they have some kind of program that gets me to where I need to go? I can’t quit my job because they take my license away because of narcolepsy…thats crazy! Sorry, I have an appointment on the 21st but I’m starting to freak out a little.
I have sleep apnea which is well controlled through the use of a CPAP machine, but I was turned down for health insurance by Blue Cross Blue Shield because of it. I recently left a job through which I had health insurance and am now self employed and need to find an individual policy for myself.
Would you consider being inside the house with no job, waking up at 12PM refreshed, and sleeping at 3AM be jet lag? and almost everyone you talk to is a little frustrating and headache giving
I have been suffering from migraines and insomnia for aprrox 3 months. My doctor says they are probably related to each other. He has given me serval types of pain pills, and sleeping pills. Which work. But make me sleepy, and sluggish the next day. I work as a registered nurse so I know about the prescription medications. But of course we were never taught about Herbal remedies. Does any one have any that really work. I am having a real hard time with this because I have a demanding job and a family to take care of. And I feel completely worn out. My doctor does have me set up with specialist. But my appointments are not for some time.
I don’t do illegal drugs.
