Guest Speaker: Gina Dennis, CHC
Topic: Narcolepsy & Idiopathic Hypersomnia Management Beyond Medication.
At this month’s Living With Narcolepsy Catch-Up I invited Madcap Gina, aka Gina Dennis from Madcap Narcolepsy to be our guest speaker. Gina discussed how to mitigate narcolepsy and idiopathic hypersomnia symptoms by using diet and lifestyle changes and techniques. Gina’s specialty is making hard changes simpler for people with sleep disorders. In this presentation, you will learn how to maximize medication efficacy, reduce medication side effects, naturally reduce narcolepsy and idiopathic hypersomnia symptoms, and increase wakefulness. Gina’s presentation can be viewed on the Hypersomnia Australia YouTube channel, or you can read the slides from Gina’s presentation below.

My name is Di Spillane and I am Living With Narcolepsy (N1) in Australia.
Despite having lived with this disorder since childhood, I wasn't diagnosed with narcolepsy + cataplexy (N1) until late in life at the age of 49.
Every person has their own personal journey, this website is where I will share my story about living with narcolepsy & cataplexy, and my long journey to receiving a diagnosis.
I will share information and tips for managing day to day life in an effort to help others who live with narcolepsy, help those who suspect that they might have a sleep disorder by providing information about my experiences, and help the narcolepsy community by advocating, educating, and raising public awareness of this debilitating rare sleep disorder.
