What the hell...   I was surfing medline links and totally forgot to do this search-

Low Vitamin D in Narcolepsy with Cataplexy
This is the first report to investigate vitamin D status in patients with NC. Results show significantly lower 25(OH)D level in European patients with NC compared to age- and gender-matched controls. Vitamin D deficiency was strongly associated with narcolepsy by an odds ratio up to 5-fold, independently of socio-demographic and clinical characteristics.
Did your doctor tell you that?

and while I'm at it...    Vitamin D deficiency occurs in 64% of men and 71% of women with celiac disease- even on a gluten-free diet.
