Hello everybody,

I’ve been struggling for 9 months with extreme daytime sleepiness, I always thought it was low iron, but after blood tests I got referred to a sleep specialist. I’ve done an at home sleep test that yielded no indication of sleep apnoea. To preface I sleep 9-10 hours a night, am never refreshed when waking up and most times struggle to wake up. Around 4,5 pm every day I have an hour/hour and a half nap in order to getthrough my evening. Sometimes I nearly fall asleep while driving for more than half an hour. My sleep specialist wants me to do a hospital sleep study where I stay overnight and till 4 pm the next day. I’m not sure exhausted and just want to feel normal again. Sleep specialist thinks it may be IH, My GP thinks it could be my anti depressants that’s causing fatigue so I am weaning off of them. Has anyone else had similar experiences? Thank you
