I have recently been diagnosed
with sleep apnea and have experienced two epilepic seizures since the first of this year. I have had several tests done with all negative results. I also have aquired a c-pap ventilator that has helped my sleep apnea. Unfortunately I have experienced allerigic reactions to both tegretol and phoenobarbitol. I am also curious as to a connection between the two. I am currently trying to have more testing done to see if there may be a connection. I am 37 and have no previous history of seizures. I will post more info as it becomes available. Please post any info you may find. Good luck!
