How often would you have night seizures and how would you categorize them? I was diagnosed with sleep apnea a while ago and was treated with tonsilectomy and adenoid removal which improved my fatigue symptoms. Then years later suffered a mTBI in car accident and almost 2 years in, have had very poor sleep. I have had 2 sleep studies done. The 1st one showed I had very low REM sleep but no apneas. Was prescribed gabapentin but I didn't like it.

I just got 2nd sleep study one done which showed I had some apneas and will be going back to do sleep study with CPAP.

Lately, I have had noticed my body convulses when I start to go to sleep and my whole body jerks. My wife notices my body twitching in middle of night as well. I also have been hiccupping lately at 4 am and had frequent nightsweats.

I guess I'll see if CPAP helps my symptoms but will ask my neuro about those medications. Thank you.
