things I've found say up to a third diagnosed with autism are prone to develop epilepsy
looking up autism info I feel I may have some of these symptoms
I took a test online which may or may not be accurate, but which indicates an autism link based on my answers

do any of you have any experience in this issue?
 
I asked my friend and, though not diagnosed as autistic, he has been tested and, done the online ones as well. Always comes back borderline and, he does have quite a few of the symptoms of mild autism.

I suspect it is related. Not a big deal and, not all that noticeable unless you know him well, but definitely enough to question it if you know him well.
