in 1995 i had the surgery for sleep apena(uvp)and was put on a c-pap machine. Since Dec. 1999 i have been so very tired that i have been going from Doctor to Doctor trying to find out just what is wrong with me.After a sleep study at the cleve. clinic i was diagnosed with RLS. I was just wondering how dangerous this is for me due the fact that i am a truck driver and have fallen asleep behind the wheel on several occasions. This even happens during the daytime.
I was prescribed to sinemet and then clonazepam and i am still very drosy and can fall asleep at the drop of a dime. Also will this disorder get better or not?
or will it become debilitating?
