I have been with simple partial seizure epilepsy for about 10 years, and found out that I also have apnea about 7 months ago. So far all I have are auras and no gm's. I'm on dilation and kreppra for the seizures and still have them with the cpap but not as often, the 2 do not seem to be related. Have you been checked for epilepsy by a nero? and checked out if your ep drugs are working? As far as I know from my dr is that they are different problems and have to be treated that way. Good luck and if you do find any miracle treatments let me know, Terry
