New Med Trial Nov 2017 - March 2018 (LIving with Narcalepsy type 1)

So I went to Orlando in November to have a sleep study done to confirm that I had narcolepsy.  As i'm filling out the forms I start to have a catalepsy episode and freaks everyone our because they hadn't seen one.  I found it funny seeing as they were looking for people with both.

Once a month i would do a sleep study over night and once a month I would also do a check in and obtain more meds. And it would continue until March.

Its a study for a similar drug called Zyrem which is a drug made of sodium oxybate and is reguried to be take twice a night about 4hours apart.  There are many risks with this drug due to takeing to close or double up on dose by accident.  They also typically will pass out within 5-15mins after taking them.  Its a similar mix to that of the Date Rape drug which Doctors have learned also can aid in the stage of REM Sleep.

The drug I will be trying is to be taken once a night and than sleep for 8hours.  Your not alloud to eat 2hrs before taking due to it possible not working correctly.   There is a chance that I wont get the actual drug but a placibo because its a blind test.

UPDATE of STUDY

So i feel that I recieved the real deal the first night I took it I woke up by 8am after not being awake and out of bed for years before 9/10am.  I normally would start fighting sleep around 3-5pm.  And at one point the only time I was awake was for Work, School, or activities I needed to be at.  The first week on this drug my eyes hurt they hurt so bad it felt like I wanted to claw them out.  IDK why but I strongly beleave that it is due to my eyes not being open as long as they had been for years.  I felt wide eyed and awake for what felt like the first time in my life.  I would ask "where have I been all this time, OMG is this what being awake turely feels like."
