Neil I would have thought that this is entirely appropriate for acad-ae-med. Thanks for informing us of this horror story - no doubt list members will be seeing more cases in the future. What if one of these "unrousable normal heavy sleepers" obstructs their airway or vomits and aspirates during sleep ? Perhaps the orthomolecular physicians have better results at fixing hypoxic brain damage than we do.
