I feel very sorry for you. I have a 7 year old who I have the same trouble with. I have even used a wash cloth on her face. When she does wake up I have usually gotten her dressed because if I wait she would never get to school.
We had her tested and her HLA blood typing came back just as mine did with the double gene. Now I am trying to find help because she is so young no one at our sleep lab wants to treat her. There is only 1 child her age on record as of now.

We have had 3 diagnosed in my family so far, and I know there are more, Testing is expensive.
From what I have read from you if you can have your son tested YESTERDAY(if you know what I mean).
I currently am being treated with Dexidrine. I started with Prozack but my metabolism is very high and I would burn it right up so they now give me Dexidring 15mg 6 per day. I am 5ft 6in and weigh 111 lbs(very thin)so I know all about this, I live it.

I hope I helped you, GOOD LUCK, and again have him tested.

Deb

ps
