As far as I know I am the only family member with dx'd narcolepsy.

But, my sister has major problems staying awake. I've been encouraging her to get tested. My father also falls asleep all the time - but he wouldn't get tested. He's just not that interested.

From all the postings I've read here - a lot of people don't have family members with narcolepsy. Some do.
