Thanks for the insights.
My problem with doing the MSLT is like I mentioned, coming off all my Effexor, and then on top of that, potentially being weaned (sp?) off my meds for a period of time when classes are in session. yuck.

I also was diagnosed with OSA recently (been on CPAP apprx 2.5 wks), and ontop of that, have depression and anxiety disorders, and some learning disabilities (for one thing, I can't spell) :)

As for driving, I know that in MA, (where I go to college) you have to be seizure free for 3mos. to drive again according to what one doc told me. So it looks like i"m gonna be beggin' my friends for rides to the T in the fall.....sigh......
