I have just been diagnosed with seizures, only when I am sleeping. any one have any advice on how to deal?

Well my boyfriend is epileptic and just make sure there are no tables by your bed or your bed is not very high off of the ground. Just take your medication beacause my boiyfriend doesn't and it just make matters worse. Also make sure you do get a good nights sleep, sleep depriving yourself just makes it worse. I hope it helps.I have just been diagnosed with seizures, only when I am sleeping. any one have any advice on how to deal?
oohh. that is relaly dangerous. have someone sleeping in the same room with you at all times. my sister used to have these. she grew out of them though. but they are really dangerous. because u could die if you dont get the hospital soon enough or something .idk. thats just all i heard from my sister. i dont mean to scare u or anything but yeah.


good luck :))


%26lt;3I have just been diagnosed with seizures, only when I am sleeping. any one have any advice on how to deal?
yeah i have the same problem so if you find out somthing about it contact me and if i do ill contact you
my friend has same problem just take your meds and try to control it best advise is to go to bed at decent time and not when your to tired to move
that is what they told me, too. i don't like meds. took something for awhile but decided to quit. after a few weeks, i did indeed have a severe seizure and really chew up my tongue. probably needed stitches but doctor was annoyey with me and would not even look.





the meds, by the way, made me even more stupid than i am and i really hate that. i also hate doctors with their expensive wonder cures that my ancestors lacked for a few thousand years. i am very, very suspicious of doctors. you should make a big effort to get smart on anything they want you to purchase. they are not all people think. they have done great harm to me and family over the years.





there are situation when you must seek their help but take an extremely conservative view. they are not all they think they are, either.





it is a business and never forget it. they have the same goals as the managers of walmart or general electric.
ask a doctor
I trust that you mean you have peti mal, My daughters have peti mal but only when they are are awake never in their sleep , they both take medication and there is not any problem, They have an excellent consultant neurologist who is based at the Princess Alexandra Hospital in Harlow Essex.





If I can be of further help add a reply to your question
can you be more specific? there are many, many seizure disorders. if you state specifically which one you were diagnosed with, you might find a friend who is in the same situation. I have partial complex seizures, but they are kept fully controlled under medication.

Summary





Not all epileptic seizures are noticeable. For some, they can occur while a person is asleep, making epilepsy hard to recognize and also more severe. Learn how to break out of this vicious cycle.








I found this site. Hope it helps
not without knowing your entire medical history and I wouldnt advise putting that on YA, but whoever made your diagnosis would be able to give you any amount of advice about it.

I'm making the most of my life just because have seizures u don't have to stop doing the thing u love. it used to affect me when sleep it don't now. used come around go back into me. fine myself on the floor. so don't worry. if you ever want to ask anything you are welcome. i have nead. if you ever need chat I'm always around. love soph xxx
I have epilepsy - and I have never had one while sleeping. I have tonic clonic (grand mals) and simple partials (where I zone out at something and I'm suddenly not all there. Have they diagnosed you with epilepsy or a seizure disorder? Have they put you on meds? I take Lamictal and Clonopin. What happens when you seize when you sleep- are you aware of it when it's happening? See a GOOD neurologist. Good luck to you. Having a seizure is very frightening and NO fun. If your doc hasn't put you on meds, which I think you should be on- something, I would try your best to relax before you go to sleep and do not drink alcohol.
Take your medication always.....





If you have grandmal seizures in your sleep, get a baby monitor for your room. Put the reciever in a room were someone else sleeps. Also keep large bulky objects away from the bed so you can't pull them down on you.
OH no! I am so sorry. That is serious I suggest that you ask a doctor. I know that most people sould say just not to sleep but everyone needs sleep to stay healthy. Ask a doctor. Please. You seem so nice I wouldn't want anything bad to happen to you. Remember more than likely you will be ok.


GOOD LUCK YOU CAN GET THROUGHT THIS!!


GET WELL SOON! :) :)
