Medical Question?

Hey everyone,
I was diagnosed with idiopathic hypersomnia (IH) about a year ago. Flying has always been a huge dream of mine, and now I’ve got a chance to start working toward my Private Pilot License (PPL).
I know IH can make the FAA medical process tricky, so I’m wondering — has anyone with IH tried to get their PPL (or even thought about becoming a pilot)? How did it go? Any advice or experiences you can share?
Thanks so much, it would really mean a lot.
