I have a 7 mo old son and he is brestfed. Before I got pregnant I was going to talk to my doctor about possibly getting medicine for narcolepsy, but with everything going on, it became the last thing on my priority list, but now It’s really bad. I find myself sleepy all the time, I am having trouble staying awake and remembering things.What can I do? HELP!

We have an in-law who took monavie juice with good results for her narcolepsy. It is an all natural juice product that nursing mothers can take. Be sure to get the one without the glucosamine and celadrin; there are some safety concerns with those items.
See: monavie.com (warning: it is a little on the pricey side)

My boyfriend has had this condition for a while. Even was in action the first time I met him, but anyway, he’s 6’5 and 228lbs worth of muscle EVERYWHERE, we are having a great sex life as a couple. At first this didn’t get in the way, now he will literally be a second from orgasm and will become dead sleep weight on TOP during or before the orgasm. Mind you he’s penetrated and all or even during oral fast asleep with everything as he left it, myself being 5’8 150lbs I can’t really take it anymore; I’ve seen charts of him being sterile, but still, I don’t want to take chances of getting pregnant through this; I’ve only been able to get away about 40% of the time because of position or how much muscles I have that night. What should I do when his Narcolepsy kicks in?
On top is in with the 40%. There’s a whole bunch of rolling a such…but I’m thinking….

Good on you for sticking by him through this setback.

As someone has already suggested, the best thing would be for you have sex with you on top instead. You’ll need to guide him in and be careful that you don’t his penis doesn’t bend, because it can literally break (a penile fracture) if it bends too much while erect.

As for what to do when the narcolepsy kicks in….if he’s now on the bottom, he’ll no longer be falling on top of you. So you can either continue riding him to orgasm if he’s happy with that (ask him in advance) or cease and withdraw. He may even orgasm while he is asleep, it is, of course, possible.

My typical evening can be defined by this.
To answer the usual question:
YES, this is real. No, it’s not staged. He has had many problems since he was a young boy with suddenly falling asleep. He does not just pass out right then and there, but he gets an uncontrollable pull into sleep no matter what time of the day it is, or what he ate/drank, and no matter how many hours of sleep he had the night before. It just happens, and quite fast. It has happened to him while he was standing up several times. However, if he feels the pull into sleep while driving, he pulls over.

I am doing an assignment on Narcolepsy and i need to know how the nervous sytem of a Narcoleptic differs from a healthy nervous system. Please help, very urgent ! !

There is a profound explanation for narcoleptic disorder. Under normal conditions, brain wave shows a regular rhythm when an individual is awake. When the person falls asleep, the brain waves become slower and less regular. This sleep state is called non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep. When the person enters in deep sleep, the brain waves begin to show active pattern again. This sleep state is called rapid-eye movement (REM) sleep. Dreaming usually occurs at this state.

In narcolepsy, the order and length of NREM and REM sleep periods are disturbed, with REM sleep occurring at the onset, instead of after, of NREM sleep. Thus, narcolepsy is a disorder with REM occurring at abnormal time.

Neurological Aspects of Narcolepsy

Narcolepsy is a central nervous system disorder with characteristic symptoms of cataplexy and abnormal REM latency. Neurochemical and electrophysiological studies have shown that narcolepsy is associated with an abnormal cholinergic supersensitivity and a monoaminergic (dopamine and norepinephrine) hypoactivity. (Nishino S et al. 1995)
