Seizures while sleeping~

Ache, I understand you perfectly because I also went through a period when I began to have seizures while sleeping. My boyfriend was with me and told me what I was doing, my right arm would start shaking, my right leg too, most of the time I would wet the bed and would have a grand mal seizure. This scared the hell out of me because I had only had absence seizures up to that time and had never passed out. Sometimes I would wake up on the floor and would know I had had a seizure because I had bitten my tongue or wet my bed. I learned that I was going through menopause and many women with epilepsy begin to have grand mal seizures like mine when their bodies are going through menapuse. It has to do with the hormones getting all screwed up. I eventually grew out of it, the doctor put me on Topamax and Keppara and I've been seizure free for 4 years now. You don't mention your age, could you be starting to go through menapause? I have tried just about every neuroleptic out there and only Topamax and Keppra were able to do the trick, I developed epilepsy at 19 and I am now 59.

My name is Lisa I am 28 I have had seizures for 15years and ONLY when I am asleep. Although, they do wake me up. I have never had one while I was awake.
