Shanna had a 3 day study at a epilepsy place 24 hrs without sleep was one of them. then strobe light ect it was not a fun time. I read charts so I noticed that the nurces wrote down sz activity but dr said there was none. It is a long drawn out story. I would only do this if your dr rx's it do not insist on it. I learned the hard way on insisting on certain treatments can and will get you lables as having munchausens by proxy. We when through an 18 months of illegal phone tapping, credit card checks, and being followed by dss case worker. When it went to state federal court we won. they where suppost to pay us for mental anguish but never saw one cent.

Can anyone correlate their sz's with lack of sleep? How much sleep do you get and how do you relate quality of sleep with following days and sz's that may occur.
One thing that I have found, is things are not immediately related day to day. For example, if you get a poor night's sleep one night, the effect does not last only the next day but two or more days afterwards, i.e. your tired for this long. When you get a great nights sleep, I feel the best for several days. I can't say my sz's are related to lack of sleep but I was wondering if others have any different experiences. I was once told that the body will eventually end up having a sz if starved of sleep for a long enough period of time, i.e. days. It's nature's way to force the body to sleep. Can anyone comment on this or heard anything differently. Thanks for your support and take care.
