Hi everyone (that's awake) I have been reading these forums for about a year starting with the sleep apnea and working my knowledge and my diagnosis up (or down) according to how you look at it, to a diagnosis of narcolepsy a few weeks ago. I have only just recently been posting to them. I want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH because in the beginning of all this, all could do was read and try to belive it was true(even though I knew something was wrong denial was my friend for a short while) I am now ready to move on with this.Without being able to have read all your postings I don't know how I would have coped.So again I say THANK YOU. zznow I do have a few questions: I like your advice emma but how do you get moving to exersize when you feel so sleepy and tired? also I wonder, my two worse syptoms are extreme EDS and some pretty serious automatic behavior. I don't really have much of any type cataplexy syptoms can this change?-- I think for those of you with serious cataplexy this must be even harder to deal with.--I know this is long but I wanted to say Hi and tell you a little about myself.
