In Reply to: Women Who Sleep Too Much posted by k t on February 07, 1998 at 17:23:00:

K,
I am a woman who slept too much.I have severe obstructive sleep apnea. I fought the tiredness attributing to being over weight and working 90+ hour weeks.That almost cost me my life. You need to find a physician that is a sleep specialist, try ENT's, Pulmonologist--ask your primary care physician for a referal if he/she is not knowledgeable in this area. Your help will come by being relentless in finding a physican that is a specialist in sleep disorders. Do not dismiss this as being fatigue--you need a sleep study to determine the problem.
Best of luck,
Carolyn
