Can a narcoleptic fall asleep while talking to someone?

Narcolepsy is a neurological condition that affects the brain's ability to control sleep-wake cycles. People with narcolepsy experience excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and may fall asleep at inappropriate times, such as during conversations, while eating, or even while driving. Falling asleep during a conversation is a common symptom of narcolepsy and is often one of the first signs that a person may have this condition.
