seizures at night
Mon, 01/03/2005 - 18:50I have a question to ask anyone out there. I have complex partial seizures. I do not know what happened, but this morning I woke up and my back was killing me. I would like to know if it is possible if someone like myself could have a seizure at night, and hurt their back by doing something to it? Reason I ask this is because I did nothing that I can think of that would have hurt my back this much

I have them at night and sometimes I wake up sore. You probably twisted wrong and hurt your back or back mussles. Sometimes I take a good hot bath and that helps to relax me when I wake up from a seizure of that kind. You should tell your doctor though. It is good to have it documented. Everyone with seizures should keep a journal -- of how you feel each day etc. It helps to find patterns if they can be found. I have no specific pattern, myself but it helps to remember if you might have had one or not. Hope you feel better.
