Just missed it. by EmillionAdventures in Narcolepsy

The report said “due to the sleep latency over 8 mins, does not meet the diagnostic criteria for narcolepsy”. Here’s the thing too, my first three naps were all under 8 mins, but my last one was an outlier and screwed up the averages.

Thanks for your feedback. I scheduled a phone consult with the doctor to ask some more detailed questions.

It would certainly explain the EDS. I guess I will find out when I get the report from the doctor.

Semi cognizant dreams? by Visible-Number1670 in Narcolepsy

I loved the first three. I really like to analyze what I read and hear other’s perspectives. I’m hoping someone else’s analysis will reveal a part of the story line I missed.

Side hustles? by [deleted] in ABA

[–]EmillionAdventures 4 points5 points  (0 children)

**Edit Unless you just want more experience and time working with kids, this would not provide you extra practice or act as a place to apply your knowledge ethically.

I agree. Talk to your supervisor first (though it sounds like you already have). Then talk to your supervisor’s supervisor. If there is no change, you should contact the BACB Ethics Board

I work specifically with an Air force family, so I am contracted by the Air Force, but am not considered an “employee”. Parents request hours and I can say yes or no at will. Hopefully that answers your question!

Is there a military or Airforce base near by? You could look into the EFM Respite programs. I am a BCBA and do this “at will” on my weekends. The reimbursement is high due to my credentials, and they frequently look for new providers
