Can you help with narcolepsy and possible catoplexy?




Falling asleep when I don’t want to, same time every day, I’m told its narcolepsy. Now I feel like I can’t move, like I’m paralyzed, in my sleep, but not a dream. Ifyou have one or both, can you give me tips on what I can take to make it better.

Sleep……………….?




Lets say you where to stay up all night then finally went to sleep and got woken up leaving you with only 2 or 4 hours of sleep and just couldn’t fall back to sleep so you ended up staying up all night again. How would you fall asleep!? Without any sleeping pills…
So like you haven’t slept for 30 hours and got 2-4 hours of sleep, so now your just not tired.. This is getting so messed up.

Can sleep apnea cause headaches during the day?




I have sleep apnea…or atleast I think I do. People tell me that when I sleep, I stop breathing for awhile and make noises like I am choking. Is this sleep apnea? And if it is, does it cause headaches throughout the day? Because I have headaches almost everyday and I can’t think of what causes them.

I have the following symptoms:
I had vertigo a few days ago with a slight ache and pressure in the ears. It felt as if it were blocked. It’s lessened and I no longer feel severe vertigo (dizziness), but I still have a headache (not a migraine though). To make it worse…I’m fighting off insomnia…I can’t fall asleep and when I do i wake up half an hour later feeling like i was just on the verge of sleep but can’t quite fall into a deep sleep. I went to the doctor, but all he said was…"I’m not sure what you have. You don’t have an ear infection. You don’t seem like you have a virus. It could be BPPV or something else. Let’s wait two weeks and we’ll go from there." I’ve waited a week and it’s become a pain in the butt. Has anyone felt this before?

How long should a 1 month old sleep during the day?




I guess I always thought infants did a lot of sleeping. This was the case the first week that our baby was home, however now she only takes short naps throughout the day. Usually they are only about 45 minutes to an hour at the most. It makes it really hard to get anything done. At only 1 month, should she be sleeping for longer intervals? She is breastfed, so that may have something to do with it. She does sometimes sleep for a straight 4 hours at night, which is very nice. I’m just worried that she should be getting more rest during the day. She is cranky a lot in the late evening. Could it be lack of sleep?

I have sleep apnea that causes daytime drowsiness. I was suspended for this reason. My employer told another employee I was suspended for sleeping on the job. Does this violate Hippa since it is medically related?
