Telling Manager about Health Issue?

I’m starting at a HF soon, and recently developed narcolepsy. Doesn’t usually impact work but very occasionally will fall asleep during meetings. how do I tell my manager about this while protecting myself from retaliation or firing?

It’s well managed but noticeable when I have an off day, I’ll quietly just start shelling my head before I fall asleep. Not known how it was developed, but really hard to get a diagnosis, which finally happened this winter.
