Everyday after waking up eventually fresh, within an hour eyes start getting heavy, puffy & sleepy. i feel like to lie down & sleep eventhough body isn't tired. in evening, it gets normalised on it's own. does this indicate narcolepsy type 2 ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Most likely sleep apnea. Get tested by a sleep study.
