> excessive sleepiness during the day...yep i got that! <grin>
get a sleep study... they're fun. insurance covers it.
then get an MSLT or MWT daytime study the next day.
You can die if you have a disorder related to EDS, like sleep apnea. Sleep apnea means you temporarily stop breathing without noticing it, you arouse just enough without noticing it, and you start breathing again. Could happen to you several times a night, and each time making your sleep lousy.
Mortality is bad.
