Narcolepsy
"I&#039;ve known something was wrong with me for several years now, but only recently did I &quot;push the point&quot; and get some face time with a specialist. The pulmonologist put me on a CPAP machine and dismissed my MSLT results, whereas the neurologist paid attention to my MSLT results and diagnosed me with narcolepsy. He put me on 250mg Nuvigil, broken in half, 1 in AM and 1 at noon. The first day it worked *great*, the rest of the first week or two it worked so-so (still had &quot;the nods&quot; at my desk, driving, etc, but usually didn&#039;t fall completely asleep), but it really hasn&#039;t helped since then. I, too, will &quot;stick it out&quot; for a month."
