Is This a Seizure?????????????
Posted: 12-12-04 01:49am

I need help from someone, a little advice. It all started about 4 years ago. It started just once in awhile, maybe every 5 months or so. I would wake up feeling scared to death, couldn't speak couldn't move, every inch on the inside of my body, tounge, eyes everything felt like it was shaking including my bed, once it wasn't as strong and I would turn my head to look to see if the blankets or bed were moving and they weren't. I thought maybe I was having a bad dream. Now it happens several times a week, sometimes 3 or 4 times a night or day. Usually right after I fall asleep. I know that I am not having a dream when it happens. Could this be a type of seizure??

Please make an appointment with your physician to get this figured out...Sounds like a sleep study and eeg would be good tests to ask about....

Too hard to tell over the internet and I am a mom not a doc. When you have something that concerns you and it is happening more often, get it checked out! Thanks!
