Hi,

So my sleep is probably getting interrupted by seizures that I'm unaware of, If you had read my previous threads, I have stated that I've had some sort of seizures every year or six months or so.

I am often tired when I wake up but get no other symptoms, I already ache a lot due to my disability so its difficult to know if I'm aching because of a seizure.

Last night I was awake reading twitter, Heard a loud deep noise and my eyes blinked repetitively for about a minute while i continued to try and read.

This morning I woke up and I felt like I hadnt slept at all. I had like a headache/tiredness feel about me but it wasnt really a headache as such.

I think that I hyperventilated a bit after woulds but not much. I really need to get this sorted out but I have a lot of other medical problems I need to sort out too. I have college work to finish that stresses me out.

I also get stress symptoms which is why the doctor told me i had panic attacks and didnt believe me..
 
Hmm tough one what I did too confirm my nocturnals was put my phone on record set it on myself went sleep then id watch it back the next day took a few days but it eventually confirmed the seizures :-)
 
Yeah it is, My laptop camera had a light on so i couldnt sleep with that, might try it again with a phone.
 
Mine had a light but just had too deal with it worth it in the end
 
Yeah maybe i can block out the light more, problem is i spent all night trying to sleep and eventually turned it off! I think I need an eye mask! I want to know for sure before i go complaining to doctors, last time they thought i was stupid!
 
I know how you feel spent months waking knackered then had massive seizure at work,then spent time in hospital and they noticed nocturnal, but wanted too see it for myself why I recorded it
