Question: ??????about rem sleep behavior disorder ?????what are common symptoms and treatments for this condition? i have observed a friend and they will sit up and sing during sleep or talk out loud about the things they are dreaming about and even kick or push and when i tried to wake them up they responded as if i were part of the dream, an example being my shaking there shoulder to wake them and they scream out get off get off and kick and shove out but is still alseep. Is this RBD? They are taking other medications and seem to fit what i have read but i am not sure of what to do? i want my friend to go have a sleep study. please give any info you can or input that may help
Answer: modern sleep studies are very professionally conducted, and this friend has a potentially serious condition. I don't know about RBD, but it does not seem like a good sleep and the medication situation can be quite a mess. If they have the correct health insurance, a sleep study is well worth it.the technicians are generally very gentle and professional, and respect the discomfort people bring to this experience that can make a person very self-conscious.
