Narcolepsy

By Animus Sunday, December 06, 2009

My new medication is called Pemoline, but after completing some sleep tests I will be put onto Modafinil. So... the tiredness and sleepiness I have been feeling for so long wasnt from my Sz meds. I do recall feeling sleepy alot but after being delusional for years and finally being put on Sz meds I tended to blame the meds. Currently I am taking Prozac, Abilify, Zoloft, and Pemoline. I guess it feels better now. Going back to Australia in 12 days, for a short stay over Xmas and New Year. Seeing the Aussie Pdoc and must tell him the news about my Narcolepsy. Things are looking up for 2010 which is good. However I need to find a new job after March so I shouldnt get too excited yet. Anyway, it will be nice to be back with the family for Xmas. I hope everyone on this site also has a nice Xmas and New Year... may your wishes come true!

Hey, Merry Chritmas to you too.

 

I celebrate Chanukah but I celebrate Christmas too because Christmas is so neat-o and so Lordy Jesus and my family's been Celebrating Christmas too since before I was born.

 

I love the lights and the candles and the Silent Night, and all. It makes everything so bright, like I can then handle, all the things in life that come to call.

 

The Christmas Candles dance too and HE speaks through them.

 

Be Blessed and Be Safe on your Journey back to see your family,

 

Merry Christmas & Shalom.

I hope you do find relief from the fatigue and drowsiness.  When I first started taking Zyprexa I slept about 16 hrs a day, but now it doesn't affect me that way.  So it may have been (for me) the sz as much or more than the medication causing me to feel like a zombie.  I'm glad I have wide-awake days now.  I hope you have a blessed Christmas holiday with those you love.
