Has anyone failed the MSLT being more of a long sleeper type vs multiple naps a day and still got dx'd with IH?
Hi! I'm having my MSLT next week and am more of someone who can sleep 12+ hours in one period if permitted and spend the rest of the day VERY sleepy/tired. I also have been officially diagnosed with a delayed phase sleep cycle disorder, which complicates things and why I've been given a strict wake up time during my cumulative 6 weeks of actigraphy. I'm worried I won't fall into a deep enough sleep for it to count towards a diagnosis via MSLT. My question is that if I "fail" the MSLT, is there still a possibility of being diagnosed with IH? I've inquired before about the 24 hour polysomnography instead which could allow me to sleep for the 12+ hours, but was told that there are no facilities nearby that perform them.
