A member asked:

Keep falling asleep throughout the day at work, vivid dreams as well, sleep at 9:30 pm, rise @4:50am, what could be wrong with me?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sleep study?: More history and a physical examination is required in order to determine any pathologic issues at hand. You should see a doctor specializing in sleep medicine who can assess you and determine the need for a sleep study and other evaluations.
