Not me, but a family member who additionally was diagnosed with an endocrine system disorder of unknown cause (idiopathic).
What helps that family member is better sleep architecture. How was that in your sleep study? Takes tryptophan and other supplements to help with sleep at night, although was also offered pharmaceuticals. Better hormone replacement also helps at night. Daytime... addition to provigil, some are helped by the stimulating, "brightening" effect of Wellbutrin. But that makes others anxious.
