Deb,
Wow! Thanks for answering me. You really put me at ease. I am just so startled by all of this sleep stuff that I am starting to feel like anxiety is coming on or something. I don't know. That sounds nuts I guess. I just wondered about the falling asleep part because during the day I DO definitely fight going to sleep. I think I could sleep anytime during the day, but I don't think (I guess it's possible though)I miss parts of conversation and stuff even though I do shut my eyes for a few mintues, or seconds or whatever allows. What do you think about that? I don't want to loose my driver's license, but I know I need to be honest with the doctor about some things that have happened to me. I have a six year old son. THis is very hard for him too. What if I couldn't drive to the store when he needed something? Or get to a hospital, etc. But, also what if I fell asleep driving? Although, I don't think I would. So much to think about.
