Thursday May 11, 2000 The "Rip Van Winkle" Sleep Disorder Imagine going to bed and not waking up for five months! Sounds like the story of Rip Van Winkle, but Kristin Brown's life is no fairy tale. She suffers from a tragic sleep disorder doctors can't predict, explain, or cure. EXTRA puts this puzzling condition in focus. For 23-year-old Kristie Brown, preparing for bed each night is frightening. She knows that once her head hits the pillow she may not wake up for days, weeks, and even months at a time. Kristie suffers from one of the world's rarest and most bizarre sleep disorders. It's called Kleine-Levin Syndrome and its cost Kristin her teenage years, her friends, and a normal life. "I missed my homecoming. I missed cheerleading. I missed all kinds of Dances and social events." Kristie says. It started when Kristie was only 15. That's when she went to bed one night and didn't fully wake up for 10 days straight. "She didn't respond to any of our questions anything that we asked her. She just stayed in bed and stayed extremely quiet." Kristie's mother tells us. "In September of 1993 she went to sleep and she did not wake up until February of 1994." We watched a home video of Kristie during an episode. She drifts in and out of a sleeplike state. Each time Kristie's mother stays by her side offering a little bit of food, a little bit of water, occasional groggy, trance-like trips to the bathroom.

McPhee People with a rare disorder sleep for weeks at a time. Every now and then, Ted Bigatel falls asleep and doesn't wake up for a week. He sleeps all day and night, rousing himself only enough to eat and go to the bathroom. Even then, Bigatel isn't really awake. "I'm kind of in a fog," the 15-year-old from Allentown, Pa., told Current Science. "It's like I'm walking around the house, but I don't live there." Taryn Sardis, an 18-year-old from Corte Madera, Calif., experiences similar episodes every few months. Hers last about ten days. Stephen Maier, a 27-year-old from San Jose, Calif., has had the same strange sleep episodes since he was 13. Maier recalled his first: "I was sleeping on the couch, and my parents couldn't wake me up." The episode lasted two weeks. Once or twice a year since then, Maier has experienced a two-week-long episode of almost nonstop sleep.

BIBLIOGRAPHY INTRODUCTION: In this paper I will consider few disorders associated with sleep. Probably the most common is Insomnia. I will also consider night terrors, Kleine-Levin Syndrome and the effects that some, drugs have on REM sleep. In order to fully understand sleep problems we must first understand some main mechanisms of sleep itself. RESEARCH SOURSES: 3 book sources And 1 dictionary source 2 Internet sources: http://www2.miracle.net/dwr/html./ http://www.pslgroup.com/INSOMNIA>HTM Hanson Glenn and Vanterelly Peter. Drugs and Society. Boston: Jones and Barlett Publishers inc. 1997 This is a very interesting point on the different causes of Insomnia: advanced age (over age 60), female gender, and history of depression. Some environmental influences might be extreme temperatures, environmental noises, and changes in surrounding environment, medication side effects, and consumption of some drugs, such as caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol. They believe that abnormal sleep can be treated by benzodiazepines. Kalat, J.W.

Questions in The Mental Health Forum are currently being answered by Roger L. Gould, M.D., affiliated with U.C.L.A., and author of the Mastering Stress and Depression program. Subject: Eating Disorder? Topic Area: Mental Health (other) Forum: The Mental Health Forum Question Posted By: Anne on Tuesday, February 09, 1999 Dear Anne, There are many disorders which cause over-eating, which can lead to obesity. You did not state your son's weight, or if his uncontrollable eating is associated with recurrent compensatory behaviors to prevent weight gain, such as self-induced vomiting, repeated laxative or diuretic use, or excessive exercise. If this should be the case, a diagnosis of bulimia nervosa is likely. Over-eating may also be seen in medical conditions such as hypothyroidism, and in rare syndromes such as Kluver-Bucy syndrome and Kleine-Levin syndrome, to name a few. The good news is that eating disorders can be successfully treated with cognitive-behavioral therapy, group therapy, family therapy, and medications. I hope you find this information helpful.

Carpenter, R. Yassa and R. Ochs A patient with Kleine-Levin syndrome, typical except that onset was at 39 years of age, died during a symptomatic period. Autopsy disclosed recent and old lesions in the medial thalamus involving intralaminar, medial, and some dorsal nuclei as well as the pulvinar. Despite massive microglial infiltration, there was minimal neuronal loss. The hypothalamus was not involved. The findings suggest a viral cause for Kleine-Levin syndrome.

LE SYNDROME DE KLEINE-LEVIN : Frontière entre la neurologie et la psychiatrie Rémi PICARD Assistant des Hôpitaux Introduction Le syndrome de Kleine-Levin appartient au groupe des hypersomnies intermittentes ou récurrentes (idiopathiques). Il s’agit d’une affection neurologique bénigne et rare, touchant principalement les adolescents. Le diagnostic est avant tout clinique se fondant sur une hypersomnie diurne avec un allongement du temps de sommeil nocturne associé à des troubles du comportement (1). Ce syndrome trouve sa place à côté de la maladie de Gélineau (narcolepsie-cataplexie) dans le groupe des hypersomnies pathologiques primaires (2). Nous aborderons successivement la physiologie et la pathologie du sommeil, puis la clinique, l’évolution, les diagnostics différentiels, l’étiopathogénie et le traitement du syndrome de Kleine-Levin. Physiologie du sommeil Le sommeil est fondamental et impératif pour l’homme comme pour les animaux. Mais son besoin est variable d’une personne à une autre. Habituellement il est entre 7 heures et 8 heures 30. Mais il existe également des « petits » dormeurs dont la durée du sommeil peut aller de 4 à 6 heures (10% des adultes) et des « gros » dormeurs (15% des adultes) qui dorment plus de 9 heures (1). Cependant l’examen électro-encéphalographique bouleversa la compréhension du sommeil.
