Your heart will still beat (albeit very slowly) and that can be detected. More importantly your brain will still be functioning (sufferers report hallucinations etc) and can be measured electrically. Historically catalepsy (as being more like death than narcolepsy) was often dianosed as death as there was no way of detecting such minute signs as a very slow heart, extremely slow and shallow breathing and electrical brain activity.
