He will go all week complaining about how he can’t sleep, he’ll get about 4 hours of sleep a night. Then other days he will sleep for nearly 20 hours. There is clearly something wrong, should he go see a physician or is it just a bad sleeping habit?
Chosen Answer:
Sleep disorders come in many sizes and colors and should be taken seriously. Best to undergo a sleep study to determine what’s happening. Be sure to find a certified sleep center with board certified sleep medicine physicians. Further educational information in link below.

Posted by Admin on April 10, 2012 in Sleep Disorder Info with 6 Comments
every evening my wife,aged 60,begins to nap from the moment she sits down for the evening,usually about 7pm.she rouses every 5mins or so.may make a comment,but if I take a few secs to answer,she,s nodded of again without hearing my reply.Nn amount of complaining on my part dters her nodding afew secs later.has she a problem or is it just me with the problem.this is repeated every evening,has done for years;HELP.
Chosen Answer:
Is she gaining weight, losing hair, have dry skin? If she does you may want to get her thyroid hormones checked out. Sleepiness is a symptom of that, or she could possibly have narcolepsy.
