Thanks!

I will definitely reaserch the possible connection between migranes and cataplexy. As it is, my migranes are also so intense that I wouldn't know if I had a cataplexy attack, though sometimes my body goes numb for a few hours.

My friend just suggested to me the other day after I dozed off during a conversation (again!) that I might have narcolepsy. I contacted my neurologist and he is setting up one of those sleep tests in a couple weeks. Man, I just wish I wasn't so tired! I am actually hoping to rule out narcolepsy. I just started being this tired only two months ago. Perhaps it is just a phase...
