narcolepsy conference 2010

Compiled data has revealed that between 2002 and 2009, the narcolepsy rate among children under age 17 was 0.31 per 100,000. But in 2010, that number jumped to 5.3 per 100,000, which represents a 17-fold increase. Similarly, research compiled by Markku Partinen of the Helsinki Sleep Clinic and Hanna Nohynek of the National Institute for Health and Welfare in Finland, both of which were also involved in the new research, has determined a link between Pandemrix and narcolepsy.

I had this done in 2010 due to poor sleep and extreme sleepiness during the day. Always, always tired, but cannot nap- to keep it short. After this, I was given ambien cr at night and nuvigil during the day. I am wanting to better understand my results. Sleep efficiency after onset: 93.6% Waking after sleep onset: .5 min Sleep onset latency: 11 min First REM latency: 77.5 min #of REM Periods: 5 Stage 1: 24.5 min / 5.4% TST Stage 2: 252 min / 55.

Hello, I am looking for alternative treatments, natural remedies, and various exercise suggestions to help me increase wakefulness. I was diagnosed with Narcolepsy in November 2010, but I had been experiencing symptoms since I was around 10 to 11 years old. I am currently taking Vyvanse 70mg in the morning, 10mg of Adderall (short acting) in the evening, and trying to implement a daily nap schedule. Over the last year the cataplexy I experience has increased and my muscle tone has decreased.

Hi everyone I was diagnosed in 2010 with Narcolepsy & Cataplexy. One thing that I've been wondering, does anyone here get a severe headache after a cataplexic episode/sleep attack? I was in the hospital for a week in october because I kept "passing out" although that's not what I called it. I would feel strange, fall over, and be completely limp for 30ish seconds. Then I would get up and sometimes have trouble walking and a few hours later I would get a MASSIVE headache.

past surgeries- appendectomy (2001), R hip scope/osteoplasty (2006), gallbladder removed/exploratory lap (2008-looking for infection following El Salvador), tonsillectomy, septoplasty, and sinuses surgically cleaned (Feb 2010). 1.4 cm Pineal Cyst found in 2008, has not shown significant growth and is not presenting as damaging or blocking anything on my MRIs.

it was reported in the CROI conference last week in San Francisco…I thought it was very interesting.

pilory bacteria you might run this test and check values in research conference 2010 in boston, they have reported some values, i posted the links in the community but that's not easy to find, if you send me a private message with your email i might send you all boston conference posters and then you search for that study

Modafinil is a drug for narcolepsy prescribed for MS fatigue. I am interested in knowing if you have narcolepsy or MS fatigue. Recently I have been experiencing extreme fatigue for which my neuro prescribed amantadine. It is working. The next step would be modafinil but I was told that many of their patients use Ritalin or adderall. Both are addictive so they start with the ones with least side effects first. So far amantadine has been helping get me through my day without crashing.

I am diagnosis with narcolepsy and have had symptoms for 5 years now. I have been taking 500 mg. of nuvigil for over 2 years. Plus, 60 mg of adderall a day. My symptoms have slowed down a little, but I have to take 2 naps a day and not drive anywhere. I have sleep studies twice a year and it seems to get worse each time. Its very aggravating to me! It seems like something would help. I see a team of specialists at Vanderbilt, but I need something else, but what? Anyone have any suggestions?

Hi everyone. I am not familiar with Narcolepsy or sleep disorders in general but my sleep has always been different. Typically, I fight daytime sleepiness with caffeine. In prior years, the caffeine has been a lot but I’ve lowered it significantly.

I have Narcolepsy- My vitamin B 12 level is 235- should it be higher for my condition?

Although the pt has RLS and PLMS, the arousal associated with these do not likely explain EDS- given a short overall sleep and REM latency, consider narcolepsy clinically. I had 156 arousals, 110 spontaneous, the rest due to limb movement. I also spent most of my sleep time in sleep stages 1 and 2, whith REM episodes scattered randomly. I had no time in stage 3, and when I had REM sleep it was from wake to REM with no progression through the other cycles.

The combination of this study and my first MSLT nap study produced a perfect pattern for diagnosis of Narcolepsy. Has there ever been a study to look at the coorelation between the 2 diseases. Would many CFS sufferers be classified narcoleptic if they took the appropriate test? Narcolepsy leads back to hippothalmus and lack of production of hypocretin/orexin(?). Seems like all things lead to hippothalmus. Thank you!

i was wondering if i should be tested for narcolepsy, or if diagnosed with narcolepsy would they prescribe me to something similar to adderrall? if this were the case, being tested would not matter much if they would give me the same medications anyways. I just dont want to be misdiagnosed and on the wrong medication for the rest of my life.

A 2010 IRS conference that cost $4.1 million included a $17,000 keynote speaker that spoke about how he would “create a unique painting that reinforces his message of unlearning the rules,” another keynote speaker that cost $27,500 for two one-hour speeches, and the IRS also spent over $50,000 on videos including a Star Trek parody and a dance video." http://www.ijreview.

ll be seeing in August actually said she had attended a conference on Fibro/CFS just a couple of weeks before she interviewed me to decide if she would take me as a patient. Hope all goes well.
