Narcoleply treatment
#1
Narcoleply treatment
I have suffering from daytime sleepiness for many many years. Initially diagnosed with OA and tried CPAP which didn't help. Later with the help of this forum a couple of months back using ASV. As felt still sleepy & tired, I was advised to consult Neoroligist. 

Last week I consulted neorolgist and he put me on Methylphenidate Hydrochloride 10.  After trying it 1 tablet in the morning, though its keeping awake but I dont feel good. I feel agitated, severely lack of focus, and concentration, fizzity, woobly feet, and its like a tug of war between sleepiness and wakeness,. May be it needs more time adjust with medication? I have read about another medication "orexin". I would like to know if anyone tried it and how they felt. Or any other advise regarding this.

Multiple sleep latency test was not done before prescribing the medication.


Below is my journey upto this point.
