I have excessive fatigue. I will sleep for 10-12 hours and wake up tired. I have renal kidney insufficiency. My creatinine was 2.6 the last time I had blood work. I went to a sleep center and it isn t sleep apnea or anything related to that. Do you have any thoughts as to whether or not it is the renal insufficiency that is causing the excesssive fatigue and lack of energy. My doctor tried to prescribe Nuvegil but I had adverse reactions.
