They are nocturnal seizures. I am 40 and have been recently diagnosed with focal and absence seizures. Apparently I've been having these kinds of seizures since I was a child and nobody ever really noticed. I brought up my chronic bedwetting until I was almost 17 years old with her and she told me the bed wedding, heavy drooling, and being tired when you wake up is nocturnal seizures.

Trae, I wet the bed every night until I was 17 the it occurred sometime. I am 40 now and it's happened a few times. I was told they are part of nocturnal seizures.

Hello Stacy I know how you feel; I've had seizures since I was in 1st grade; I have the highest level seizures grandmal. My occasional night time wetting didn't start until about maybe 4 years ago. Mine average out to about 2 to 3 times a week; mine are light enough to where I can just fold up some paper towels. I haven't even told my parents about my occasional bed wetting problem.
