Hi, its bed-time (2.30 a.m. ;-) - i wasnt tired 20 mins ago - I am now ;)
- Was finishing off emails & such.. - website design etc..)

Anyway, my fiancee has Narcolepsy.. (Her doctors dont actually know what
she has, but Ive "briefly" read your list & some symptoms she has described
- Is Narcolepsy..)

As for me - I dont think Im narcoleptic or anything - No sleep 'atacks'
during daytime - just excessivly tired, & weak.. - Although its constant -
all the time... - Night times im a lot better - for some reason, i like
staying up late - hate getting up early :-( (even after 6 hours, 8 hours,
10, 12 or 16 hours sleep - Same thing..)

During weekdays, I get 6-8 hours, on weekends i get 8-12 (i'll explain later)..

ok - thanks.. - I'll go to bed, & re-read it tomorow...

goodnight..

G
