Are there any harms of narcolepsy, and what are the serious harms of narcolepsy?

1. Patients should be alert to drowsiness as a signal of other diseases, and sleepiness is closely related to sleep disorders such as sleep apnea and narcolepsy. In particular, patients with narcolepsy have irresistible sleep attacks when they want to sleep during the day, even if they try to stay awake, but they can't control it completely, and they fall asleep after 1-2 minutes, and sometimes they have several seizures a day. Narcolepsy often occurs after monotonous, quiet activity or eating.

Drowsiness can be mild, such as napping after lunch, and severe symptoms can be rapid falling asleep while eating or talking.

2. People with symptoms of drowsiness should seek medical attention in time, and need to do sleep monitoring, pay attention to the examination and the primary diseases that may be caused, such as sleep apnea syndrome, narcolepsy, restless legs syndrome, etc. Some people with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome have a long-term diagnosis of chronic fatigue or neurasthenia. If a patient with sleep apnea syndrome snores at night, wakes up at night or has restless sleep, and wants to sleep or feels tired during the day, if the doctor prescribes diazepam drugs for insomnia, it may relax the muscles, aggravate the narrowing of the airways, and make the condition more severe.

3. If there is drowsiness, it must not be taken lightly, which will not only affect the normal study and work of the patient, but also harm the physical and mental health. You should go to the hospital to see a doctor. Before the first time, you should avoid engaging in dangerous work and avoid driving to prevent accidents.
