Risk Factors of Narcolepsy
Some of the risk factors for narcolepsy may include the following:
Family history- If you have a first-degree family member (like a parent or sibling) with narcolepsy, you could be 40 times more likely to have the condition. But the percentage of cases that run in families is small.
Age- There are two peak periods of diagnosis for narcolepsy: around age 15 and around 36. However, narcolepsy is commonly underdiagnosed or misdiagnosed.
Previous brain trauma- In rare instances, narcolepsy can occur after severe trauma to areas of the brain that regulate wakefulness and REM sleep. Brain tumors may also cause narcolepsy.
