The only time he has mentioned it has been after he has had a seizure, but other than that he looks fine every morning.

Yes sleep deprevation makes it worse and once you do get some ask for it however it is hell to stay up for a complete 24 hours before having the test I have had 2  and they are hard.  The second one the room was so loud I could not even get to sleep durring it even though I was up for 32 hours because there was a mix up with my appointment,  My first on however I was asleep in 15 minutes and reached a rem 4 sleep.  That normally takes hours.  I was that tired.  But had several sezures in my sleep.  He may be having sezures in his sleep he may not know about.  Does he ever wake in the morning feeling like a truck hit him?

He hasn't told me much, just that he feels that something bads gonna happen. sorry about the playdo..i know what it is, my bad? i thaought u meant another word playdo instead of play-do i appologize. At times, i wonder if it's the bright lights from our screen tv. It is a 62 inch tv and at times i wonder. i also think its sleep deprivation, so we try to let him nap for a while after work to prevent this. He has never had this EEG done. if at one time and point we get some help with insurance, we will ask about it.

I am sorry about your epilepsy, see my husband also has this..he got this as a teenager. when i saw the first episode, it devastated me and i have been with him for almost 19 years. he has a reading and writing disibility because of this but works hard everyday for our family. How long ago was your accident if you don't mind me asking with all do and respaect?

I am sorry to hear about your car accident and the subsequent epilepsy.  I hope there is something the medical profession can do to help the condition.

Just as important, I would like to thank you and your husband for his service and your sacrafice.  No matter if they are stateside or over seas, they are giving to our country and you do as well.  There is no way to express the level of gratitude I have for all that you do... but I can say THANK YOU!!
