Open Narcolepsy

I was just diagnosed with Narcolepsy. I had a sleep study done 2 wks ago and I really was expecting them to tell me I have sleep apnea. I had had symptoms of Narcolepsy for the last 4 or 5 months but I really thought I was falling asleep all the time due to of all the meds I take making me sleepy. I really don't know anything about Narcolepsy and I'm glad I found this group to learn more and meet others who live with this malfunction.
