Thank you for your response I am currently seeing a neuro doctor and had a EEG which of course I did not have an episode during, so it was normal. I have to have a sleep deprived EEG soon so hopefully it will give me some answers. I just wanted to know if anyone else experienced this as well. I do try to record them and how many I have a day etc. I am just so tired of it happening and being anxious waiting for it to happen. I am glad I found a place to share this with thanks again

I've had sz. for 41 yrs. and the best thing for you to do is to see a neuro or Epileptologist and get some tests done like an e.e.g. or MRI to find out if anything else is going on. Start keeping track on a calendar and write down each time you may be possibly be having a sz. and write down the description of the sz. by doing this the neuro or Epileptologist you see may see a pattern in the possible sz. I found that lack of sleep and stress are the 2 main things that can trigger sz. for a person as well as hormones changing. Try taking vitamin B12 1000 mcg. once a day and see if that helps you. I know it helps me a lot because the vitamin B12 helps calm my nerves. I wish you the best of luck and May God Bless You!
