Hi! I just found this forum today--- it is such a relief to finally be able to communicate with those who understand. I am 24, was diagnosed in December 1998, but I remember sleeping in school every day, in every class, while in high School. Then I came home to take a nap. It got worse during pregnancy & since the birth of my daughter in 1995. Since my diagnosis, I have been taking 1 Cylert 18.75 in the am & one at 1o'clock. I thought it was working, because the sleep specialist I see told me not to expect any miracles, I figured any improvment was as good as it gets. Now, I am taking my regular dose of Cylert (if I need to wake up super fast for real, I have crushed & snorted one or 2, but I don't do it too often) but everyday, I also take 2-8 capsules of ephedrine. It makes me feel great, but the morning hangover is hell. I am afraid that if I tell my MD, he will think I'm out to score a buzz and I will lose the only thing (Cylert) that I feel is safe & helpful
