Thanks for coming out to Seattle Dr. Mignot. It's a very informative session for people with narcolepsy and IH.

Finally a great update and outlook.
I need to rewatch the talk, so much interesting new informations after years of a felt standstill rereading and rewatching the same information over and over again.
Especially the specifics about Orexin were very instructive. How are they involved into wakefulness, I found the nap/wakefulness two hour relationship extremely helpful. Also mentioning that there are spans of Orexin levels and outliers as well.
Also touching the topic of overeating and lack of quality of sleep, which is not treated by stimulants but by improvements of sleep quality by Xyrem for example.
Great to have all the information systematically put into place and how they relate and influence each other.
