SOS...hope that worked out for you. Wish I would have seen your note last week - I have done exactly what you described on numerous occasions in the middle of a cycle of predominantly night time (REM) attacks to buy a night of freedom for a special occasion or something just like you described - only difference being I take a 100mg pill around 10:00pm or so rather than 50mg...has worked pretty much every time to buy that one night - too bad we can't just take the darn things like a daily vitamin (for reasons I'll assume you know) !
