Narcolepsy and diving

A preliminary report of a cave diving death possibly due to narcolepsy. While not strictly a seizure, it falls under the general category of diseases that alter or lead to unconsciousness, which is a key issue with seizure disorders and diving, flying or driving, not so much the 'jerking' motion associated with it.

Narcolepsy was controlled for many years;

As I preliminary matter, I'm not advocating that you do anything to put yourself at risk. Trust me, there's nothing down there worth dying over.

However, it sounds like there is some leeway in the right circumstances for individuals who's seizures are controlled.

The Divers Alert Network ("DAN") maintains a list of physicians who are familiar with dive medicine. Perhaps they might be able to refer you to a neuro who could evaluate you?
