Hi everyone, for those of you who suffer from  nocturnal  Or  partial  Seizures do your sleep cycles look different to when you don’t experience them? Thanks

Hi Froggss,

 

I'm not sure if you're around on this board anymore, but yes I see a huge difference. For example, I had a good size seizure yesterday afternoon, I have no memory of it and a hour or more afterwards. However, then last night I slept 47% of my night between deep and rem which is unheard of for me, the most I ever get between the two is somewhere between 12 and 25% a night.

 

Nights that I have nocturnal seizures you will see numerous pink lines all over the chart that given night, not thick ones very faint ones. If it is a larger seizure in my sleep you will see on the heart rate graph that it looks like I worked out doing cardio. ( it's odd but it always makes me laugh). But we have to deal with in our lives you just have to laugh sometimes. 🙄
