as soon as my husband comes home from
work, whether it's 8,10 or 12 hours, he
eats super and falls asleep. he can fall
asleep at 5:00 p.m and sleep untill
10:00p.m stay awake for an hour and go
right back to sleep for the rest of the
night until 6:00 the next morning.that
happens all week. then on weekends he
wakes up at 10:00a.m stays awake for about
two or three hours and sleeps the rest of
the evening. sometimes he wakes up for
acouple of hours then right back to sleep
he goes. he can be wide awake then look
over at him he starts yawning saying he's
tired and he's knocked out again.he has
fallen asleep when we take a trip
somewhere and sleeps almost the entire 6
hours or more. he dont walk into a store
or anything and start falling asleep but
most of the time he's yawning ready for
bed.he is sleeping his life away. if
anyone thinks they can help please give me
an answer. we dont have insurance so it's
hard to go to the doctors to get answers,
please try to help. thank you.

Yes that does sound like a life slept
away! There are 460 causes of excessive
drowsiness or sleeping, according to this
site http://wrongdiagnos
is.com/sym/drowsiness.htm which you
can browse. I would say that you should
really take him to the doctor. If the
sleeping is caused by some serious brain
infection or something like that, it's
important that he gets immediate medical
attention.
