Close Narcolepsy

Was diagnosed with ADD when I was 19. Went through many drugs. Ritalin seemed to be the best. then i felt it didnt work anymore and bad side effects. Took myself completely off everything. Super tired all day and getting worse. My regular Dr. ran blood tests and couldn't find anything wrong. He referred me to a sleep Dr. and I have 2 overnight recordings and a multiple sleep latency test. Found out I have sleep apnea and narcolepsy. Pretty rough.

Treatments

Adderall Not Working

Tried it a few years ago for ADD. Didn't work for me.

Ritalin Working / Worked

Worked for a year. then lost effectiveness. Dr increased dose. I feel it work for like a half hour and then the rest of the day i feel like crap. bad head aches
