I was born with narcolepsy, yet didn't know until i became very ill after a family vacation in 2004.  I suffered for 17 long months with spells that resembled seizures,(yet the spells are not true siezures).  During this time period no one seemed to know what was happening to me. Eventually after many test I recieved the diagonios of Narcolepsy, restless legs syndrome, & periodioc limb movement disorder. Relieved to finally know. I have had a hard time accepting the truth of my sleeping disorder.

I'm tired at the moment so perhaps I can share more later.
