Narcolepsy and Disability Allowance
Narcolepsy is a disorder of the brain that makes sufferers extremely sleepy during the daytime and anxious during the night time. It can even cause sleep walking. The condition can be mild, or it can be severe where it affects your everyday life.
The type of severity will depend on whether you are entitled to Disability Living Allowance.
If you are entitled to DLA, you could be entitled to other benefits such as income support, housing and council tax benefits. To see if you are entitled to any of the Benefits contact your local Citizens Advice Bureau and they will happily advise you of your rights and entitlements. Alternatively please see: Consumer Rights for further information on consumer rights.
