Joe,
my aura's started out as the deja vu type for awhile and then went into more of a strange feeling that usually started in my stomach and feeling like dread and doom that last any where for 1 min to 2 mins. Sometimes I can wake up in the morning and know that I will have one or I can be sleeping and have it happen, not very nice to wake up to it's bad enough to put up the cpap. I find it interesting that you dr has you on Depakote as that is a seizure med, I'm going to have to ask my dr about this I didn't know that apnea could cause seizures, but I am happy that you don't have epilepsy as that is a pain in the ass. Maybe with the cpap given time will let you be aura free. Good luck and keep us posted, Terry
