Recording Seizures in sleep - UK person new to Epilepsy

Wed, 04/13/2016 - 06:18
Hi can anyone advise about a camera with recording capability, night vision so I can review my sleep to check if I'm continuing to have seizures in my sleep? I took part in a sleep study due to unusual experiences while awake and abnormal tiredness. I had a seizure during the study. It took them 3 months to inform me. Recently started Tegretol after Epilim didn't agree with me. I think I may still be having seizures but only way to know is recording my sleep. I'm on ESA review rate which is £75 or less a week so don't have a big budget. There are literally thousands of night vision cameras on Amazon but not clear if they do the job. One possible has a £8 monthly subscription so not much use on a tight budget. All I want is a camera that will record to a sd card or usb memory stick which I can review on fast forward on my tv to check if anything happens. Any suggestions gratefully received. Thanks Paul Report this post
