What Causes Excessive Sleep Attacks And Fatigue During Day?

How can I stop sleeping most of the day and early evening and being unable to sleep at night. I seem to feel tired during the day and early evening but wide awake all night. I have very little energy any time of day or night and can t seem to want to leave the house. The days I force myself to stay awake all day I still am unable to sleep during the night even though I feel tired, then I am awake for up to and over 24hrs

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have problem of excessive sleep attacks and fatigue during day. Well i would suggest you to consult ENT specialist for proper evaluation , because the symptoms are probably due to sleep apnea ,without any delay because sleep apnea sometimes leads to heart attack . Doctor may recommend CPAP machine to correct the problem. I would suggest you to

- Along with CPAP machine your should do light exercises.

- Also use humidifier along with CPAP machine , which will mosite the air and prevent the mucosa from drying .

- Control your diet and lose some weight.

- Start do light exercises like yoga and meditation.

- Try on sleep on side .

Take glass of warm milk before going to sleep as it will help with sleep .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
