Narcolepsy/Ideopathic Hypersomnia

Anyone dx'd with either of these conditions?  I'm usually over moderating the Crohn's & Depression forums, but I was presented with the possibility of having one of these conditions yesterday.  I'm going in for a multiple sleep latency test late in February after having the sleep study Halloween night which ruled out sleep apnea (for now.)

Hi Jon, welcome to the CFS forum. I read a little bit about idiopathic hypersomnia and it sounds a lot like how people with CFS feel - still feeling very tired after sleeping. I'm glad you are having further tests done which will hopefully help the docs figure out why you are not feeling refreshed. I wish I had more info to give you. Let us know if you have any other questions.
