                        My sister was put on Medidate (same as Ritalin) for her so-called Narcolepsy.  She went in to see a general practicioner, told him "I get sleepy after lunch," and he wrote her a Rx.  He never referred her to a neurologist, or a sleep clinic.  I think they are both nuts!! Aren't there specific AMA guidelines for making a diagnosis of narcolepsy?  Thanks for any and all replies.
