Physical Symptoms

Hypersomnia is sometimes associated with physical symptoms affecting the body. Some people report discomfort related to body temperature, such as heavy sweating, shivering or feeling too warm.5‘About Idiopathic Hypersomnia.’ Hypersomnia Foundation, 4 June 2021, www.hypersomniafoundation.org/ih

Individuals with hypersomnia may experience symptoms related to sleeping for long periods, such as back pain, muscle aches, dizziness and sore spots on pressure points, including the tailbone, knees, hips and shoulders. Fainting, headaches, indigestion and rapid heartbeat are also possible symptoms.2‘Hypersomnia Information Page.’ National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, www.ninds.nih.gov/Disorders/All-Disorders/Hypersomnia-Information-Page
