could this be temprol lobe seziures

[deegee64]

last night after having been asleep for 2 hours I woke up with extreme abdominal pain focused right abve my naval.  I stood up and bent over as the pain was so severe.  Profuse sweating and rapid heart beat along with a weird (maybe tingling sensation in arms and legs.  I ended laying on the bathroom floor as the symptoms creshendoed up and them resolved within about 10 minutes.  This has happened before at least 20 times always after having been asleep for about 2 hours.  My mother has epilepsy (the marching kind, Jacksoniem?), also her uncle had grand mal seizures.

Thank you for you consideration in this matter.

The sort of thing you just described (only it did not last as long and I had it during the day) sent me to an neurologist. I was dx'd with severe complex sleep apnea, and TLE (two EEGs showed the TLE). Try to find a good neurologist, this can be very hard to do, but don't give up. You may need to be placed on anti-epilepsy meds. Once I was on mine for a while, I started to feel much better.
Good luck,
Sherry

profuse sweating and rapid heartbeat  sound more like panic attacks


as someone who's had temporal lobe seizures for decades..it doesnt sound like it to me..but i'm far from an expert. When all else fails...research...or see a doc


good luck
