Jim and Amy, I found out that I have epilepsy by way of a eeg with temporal lobe epilepsy and that was about 10 years before the apnea thing. Jim have you had any test for epilepsy? i.e.. eeg, mri's. The test may not turn up anything but you may still have ep. I know a lot of people that have grand mall seizures and the test don't show anything, go figure! As for seizure activity I still having auras even with the cpap, and don't feel that I want to try stopping meds as my dr. said that it could proceed into larger seizures. But I'm still open to anything that might help. Terry. P.S. my e-mail is marffin@flash.net.
