I know that there is a name for this sleeping disorder, but I can't remember it. Would I see a specialist dr. about this? I'm a 50 yr old retired female with Parkinson's Disease.

Sleep Apnea- it's when u feel normal and tjen all the sudden u just fall alsleep for no reason. I have alot of patients with this disorder and it is treatable. Go to your regular M.D. and he willl give u a referrral unless he knows enough about the disorder to prescribe the right medicine. Hope u take my advice please hon.

Most will say narcalepsy... but it could also be epilepsy, heart failure, or simply and adverse drug reaction. A few tests would isolate the problem.It could also be associated with your parkinsons. Check with your MD.

it could be petite mal, as opposed to grand mal epilepsy.if this DROPPING OFF is beyond you're control it could be dangerous especially if driving or active in someway, see a normal doctor(GP) for a complete check up SOON.he/she will refer you to the appropriate specialist's
