The sleep study showed that I was having absence (petit mal) sz. 1-2 hrs. before I woke up in the morning. It was weird because I couldn't tell I had any sz. I just noticed that I would sometimes feel more sleepy in the morning than usual.
Start keeping track of how you feel when you wake up in the morning, do you feel more tired, confused, and during the day are you exhausted. If you have any of these symptoms you may be having sz. in your sleep or have a sleep disorder like sleep apnea. My advice to you is to start taking vitamin B12 once a day 1000 mcg. and get a sleep study done to see what's going on for sure. I wish you the best of luck and May God Bless You!
