Feel like you're dead anyway

Increased mortality in narcolepsy.

Mortality rates were also compared with the general US population (Centers for Disease Control data). SMRs of the narcolepsy population were consistent over the 3-year period and showed an approximate 1.5-fold excess mortality relative to those without narcolepsy. The narcolepsy population had consistently higher mortality rates relative to those without narcolepsy across all age groups, stratified by age decile, from 25-34 years to 75+ years of age. The SMR for females with narcolepsy was lower than for males with narcolepsy.

I haven't read the whole study yet.  I do not know if they break out the causes of death.  That would be interesting.   I'm guessing more cardiac problems and "self inflicted" injuries.
