So last night my husband said I had 3 seizures last night. So I woke up this morning and went to the bathroom and was really tired so I went back to bed but I noticed that it was hard for me to Sleep becuase it felt like my brain was being shocked or electrocuted.
Should I be worried does this happend after a seizure?
 
The electric shock sensation can be a kind of simple partial seizure. That may be the case for you -- basically the nerves are still "jumpy." The shock sensation can also be caused by fatigue, which could be a factor since you had a 3-seizure night. Other causes include migraine, magnesium, nerve damage, withdrawal from certain medications, but it seems more likely to related to seizure activity.
 
I sometimes get those shocks, mostly though when my threshold is lowered I get jerks that keep me up.
