Four year old with NIGHT TERRORS

by shinyshell, Sep 28, 2009 04:49PM
My four year old has been having what the nurse says night terrors.
He wakes up screaming and he doesn't know who me and his father are in fact we scare him sometimes.
He shakes very badly and sweats alot.
I looked up many sites and they say he is asleep while this is happening even if his eyes are open.
But my son will talk to us on the occasions that he knows us and he is aware of his surroundings.
I am very skeptical about these being Night terrors.
Is there anything else these Night terrors could be?

My 2 year old started having night terrors when he was taking Singulair.  Once we figured out that it was causing the night terrors, as well as, other behavior problems, we immediately took him off.  It took him about 2 months to stop the bad dreams.  Good luck.
