    I diagnosed myself, and pushed for a sleep study. My doctors are garbage.

      I wish you'd had more responsive doctors who understood narcolepsy, but I'm glad to hear that you advocated for yourself and got the sleep study. Did the sleep study indicate narcolepsy? If so, did your doctors accept the diagnosis? Best wishes. - Lori (Team Member)

          Hi . Do you mind me asking how you landed there? Were you in an accident? Thinking of you. - Lori (Team Member)
