I am not getting checked for apnia.. just for narcolepsy. My neurologist is a sleep specialist. I asked him about hallucinations when falling asleep and he asked a few questions that I answered yes to and he said it sounds like narcolepsy. He wants to do a sleep study and the follow up day one too. Is it worth the money I’ll pay to get this diagnosis? it’s not like this diagnosis can lead to a cure… just modifications at best. Should I have the test or not?
