Narcolepsy

Hi, my name is WiseCat41. I’m here because I’m having a rough day. I was finally diagnosed with multiple autoimmune diseases in a whirlwind six weeks after being extremely ill with pneumonia. Now, I’m sick again with the flu, and it feels like the bad days are outweighing the good.I’m worrying constantly—about work, taking care of my 5-year-old son, and trying to be a good partner. Honestly, I feel like I’m failing at everything.I know I’m not alone in this, but it’s so hard to see a way forward right now. How do you find balance or just get through when everything feels like too much?#newlydiagnosed #HashimotosThyroiditis #Narcolepsy #RheumatoidArthritis #CeliacDisease #Parenting #Roughday

The guys has the parts in his shop and he is coming out to try and fix the back of my new wheelchair seat. On the other hand, I don’t have sleep apnea but I do have restless leg syndrome and possibly Narcolepsy. As a result, I will just keep doing what I am doing until my next appointment. Thank you for the prayers. Oh and I am really glad I have a quite weekend coming up because I am going to need it.

Hi, my name is Georgie. I have atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome.
I'm so happy to find a place where someone else may have the same disease I have. I'm 69 yrs old and didn't know I had this disease until September 8,2020 when I had my first attack. We still don't know what caused it. I will admit it was terrible an I live in fear everyday. I try to tell myself that I am strong and can do what I enjoy. Sometimes it works,so I get my wood working tools and start sanding or cutting a piece of wood to make something or to turn a old piece of furniture into something I love and can use in my house. I made, with the help of my son, it was a very heavy solid oak chest of drawers, that is now my coffee bar my kitchen. I took the drawers out, cut and fixed solid pieces of wood for baskets to slide on inside it. I really love it. Doing things like that is what my daddy taught me to love. I love fishing and camping as well. I guess you could call me a daddies girl. He isn't with me anymore. I've been married for 50 years and 9 months to the only other man besides my daddy, that I have loved. Well, I also have narcolepsy and ADHD.That's me. I'm extremely feminine and love everything girly too,but let me set by some water with my pink fishing pole with flashing lights when I real in a nice bass, that's the true Georgie. Nice to meet ya'll.

Hi, my name is VermilionClownfish7. I'm here because I had what I can only call a flashback of something and a body memory that I can't make sense of. I knew when my Mom had passed, I would have some stuff to process that's been pushed way down deep my whole life. I want to hear other people's experiences if when something repressed, starts coming up from the deep dark place where it was hiding.

This has been a long time in the making and while i’m happy i can’t help but to think, what now? what is next for me? will my partner stop being upset with me for sleeping long hours and falling asleep during things? will my doctors up my meds? will my job finally give me accommodations? what’s next? #Narcolepsy

Hi, I am always looking for new ideas or suggestions for treatment for Narcolepsy, I have struggled to find the right treatment since I also have insomnia and restless leg syndrome. Since the first of the year my insurance company for prescriptions which is new again this year, has decided not to cover the medication I have been taking during the day to help with my daytime sleepiness. I have been taking for approximately 4+ years and works the best for me. It is so frustrating. I feel like I am starting all over again.
