First time bed wetting
Wed, 06/14/2017 - 12:53I was diagnosed with epilepsy at age 11 due to having grandmal and petite mal seizures. I think i have been having what I think is partial seizures while sleeping because I wake up feeling weird. Almost seizure-like feelings (weak and shakey and not related to diabetes) last night for the first time ever, I woke up in the middle of the night after I wet the bed. Does anyone know what could have happened???

I was diagnosed with epilepsy age 10. I had bedwetting issues into adulthood and assumed it was seizures. It turned out I also had sleep apnea. When your brain wakes up, the fires thing it wants to do is relieve your bladder. A sleep study might me worthwhile.
