nocturnal seizure

  1. A

    Strange symptoms, don't know where to turn.

    Hi everyone, My name is Abby and I am a 21 year old college student. I was diagnosed with temporal lobe epilepsy when I was 17, and so was my twin sister (strange, I know). They attributed it to us being born prematurely. Anyways, I have been having these horrible night time episodes that come...

    First seizure after 8 years free

    Hi everyone. I've had epilepsy for 12 years, had been seizure free for 8 until a few weeks ago when I had a nocturnal seizure. Or at least I think I did, I had never had nocturnal seizures before. So I gained courage, since I hate to watch videos of seizures, and looked up nocturnal seizures on...

    Partial seizures or sleepwalking?

    Hello, I'm looking for some direction, as I'm currently quite concerned that my 7 year old son, Quin, is having simple/complex partial seizures. About a year ago, he started coming into my room at night, sobbing and inconsolable. He would be wide-eyed and often had his hand clamped over his...

    Eight months down the tubes (I think)

    Well, the other morning I woke up on the bathroom floor with a goose egg on my head, a bitten tongue, and a torn up/bruised shoulder. Unless my cat decided to unleash hell on me while I was sleeping, I had a nocturnal. I thought I had eaten dinner the night before, but when I walked into the...

    Sleep and Seizures

    Good morning, I find that 95% of my seizures occur in my sleep, resulting in partial and secondarily generalised seizures. The other 5% occur shortly after I've awaken, at least within in the next 90 minutes following awakening (or when I'm getting up in the middle of the night to go to the...

    Scared after a nocturnal seizure

    Hi, I just had multiple nocturnal seizures last night right before I woke up, which I would categorize as tonic, because my muscles twitched and I felt like I couldn't breathe for a second. Now I have a slight headache this morning. I'm going to attribute it to my having 4 hours of sleep the...

    Nocturnal Seizures??? navigating doctor appts

    Hello. I'm 21. Originally a neurologist diagnosed me with epilepsy at 13 years old. I doubted the diagnosis, thinking it was a psychogenic reaction to a stressful situation at school, and convinced my parents to refuse meds. I don't remember the details of what kind of seizure they thought I...
