What is wrong with me?

Posted by Steven on December 16, 1997 at 18:58:32:

well, i just got back from the doctors office after seeing the results of the sleep study. He says i dont have sleep apnea and i agree with him. i told him that i thought i might have narcolepsy since i have the EDS, sleep paralysis, and sometimes the hallucinations too. He told me that i should eat a better diet and start getting into better shape. I would love to if i could stay off the couch or out of bed long enough to get to the gym. I also cant get out of bed in the morning, and sometimes have trouble sleeping at night. Usually i fall asleep easily, but not always. Sometimes i take naps at work, but have to be careful. I just dont know what to do, when i told my doctor about narcolepsy, it was almost as if he were offended that i mentioned it. He told me "You might have some type of a sleep disorder, but i doubt it is narcolepsy" then told me to see him in a few months again. I SAW HIM FOR THIS PROBLEM OVER 2 YEARS AGO!!! Hopefully someone can give me some advice!
