Hi Jillybear_778,
Welome to the group (smile). I was just wondering, nocturnal seizures can be caused by sleeping patterns. Do you have a regular pattern as far as time when sleeping? I mean going to sleep and waking up at about the same times? I used to always go to sleep at 10pm, then wake up at 6am. 10pm came, and my body all of a sudden hit me hard to go to sleep. I slept like a rock at night, my percentage of nocturnal seizures (that I know of) where low.
Also, not having enough hours sleep each night can trigger nocturnal seizures.

> I just recently got diagnosed w/ nightime seizure activity. I am on Topamax to help treat it and my longtime migraines. My doctor is not sure what is causing the headaches or the seizure activity. I have been having tests done for the last 3yrs w/no definitive answers given. But here is my question for anyone who can help. I asked my neurologist and he wasn't much help w/this topic (not really his area), my primary doctor is non existent (I am so frustrated with him right now-long story-I am hoping to switch drs soon though)but how do I know what cold meds are safe to take w/ seizures and my meds? Are there any sites I can go to for info? With cold season upon us, I am worried about geting sick. My husband is sick right now and I am scared I might be next and I know I have to be careful about what meds I take. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
