Age I was diagnosed
I got diagnosed recently. I’m 51. I have probably lived with it for years but never knew. I went to the doctor because of not sleeping at night, he sent me for a sleep study and learned that I was on the “spectrum” for narcolepsy. He put me on Ritalin to help me through the day. It helped for a bit then he had to up the dosage. I am doing much better now.
I have my nights. Like last night, I didn’t sleep well at all, I was up at 10:00. I think my meds need adjusting again.
Welcome to the community,
! I'm glad you found us and I'm glad you got a diagnosis. Many people have to up the dosage of Ritalin after they get started on it. Hopefully, you've found the right balance now. Are you sleeping any better at night? Sending the best of all wishes your way. - Lori (Team Member)
