Episodes of tingling and pulling


Posted by episodik on October 17, 2007 at 12:18:15:

I am waiting on my sleep study results but my doctor already said he thought I had severe sleep apnea. I have these episodes that wake me up in the mornings. I am tingling on my entire left side and am dazed and soooo tired. My face is included and feels like it is pulling down toward my chin like in a stroke. I have been checked of course by every neuro in the country and I am not having a stroke or seizure it just feels like what you hear them described as. My husband says I whimper and my breathing is very shallow and labored. I am fully aware of what is going on and can talk but can't get my thoughts together. After these, I can sleep for hours. Anyway, is this common in sleep apnea or narcolepsy?

Thanks for you comments
