It is my understanding that narcolepsy is a diagnosis of a sleep disorder, and not as a result of symptoms. Sleep studies are required and they rule out things like sleep apnea. I have narcolepsy. As my neurologist would say, self-reporting of sleep quality is magic and voodoo until the sleep study shows there is no deep sleep. There is nothing else like Xyrem in terms of what makes a life-changing difference.
