Yes, Xyrem is GHB (sodium oxybate). Considering giving it a trial. I appear to be one of the "fortunate" few for whom Parnate destroys REM sleep and causes extreme daytime somnolence. In many ways similar to narcolepsy.

Xyrem apparently promotes REM sleep and we're hoping it will relieve this problematic side effect. It has gotten so bad that I can no longer tolerate Parnate at a therapeutic dose.

I'll be sure to report back.
