Description

Narcolepsy is a rare condition of irresistible drowsiness and inappropriate periods of REM (rapid eye movement) sleep coupled with cataplexy, or loss of muscle tone. It is usually a chronic, lifelong illness. However, narcolepsy may also follow a sudden, emotional, incident.

Total daily sleep time rarely increases, regardless of the frequency of episodes. This condition is found equally in both men and women and affects one out of one thousand people.
