I Had A Seizure A Week Ago. Since I Have Been Very Tired And Sleeping Very Heavily. Does Anybody Find That They Are Very Sleepy Afterwards.
Thank you for your support. When I had my seizure it during the night while I was sleeping. I was consciously aware that I was having a seizure. I’ve never had this before. I think that with being asleep and less brain activity, this my be why I was aware that I was having a seizure.
Depending on the severity of the seizure - if it is a long one I’m very tired- a short one at times I can bounce back . Lately it’s been long ones.
@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member , After most of my seizures I’m very tired & must lay down & sleep & I don’t have much energy. The tiredness from the seizure varies when it comes to how long that tiredness will last cause boy after one seizure I felt so weak & tired & that tiredness lasted a week, maybe not as strong as it was right after the seizure but I just wasn’t use to the tiredness feeling lasting that long. I have simple & complex partial seizures & nocturnal seizures where I have seizures in my sleep. In February 2024 I had a seizure & was completely aware of what was happening but couldn’t control any of it & I remember everything that happened. I had gotten really tired & was about to go lay down & while talking to my Mom the symptoms slowly started one by one. I’m not usually that aware of things when I have a seizure, but my Mom helped me to bed & even after that I was still tired & didn’t have any energy. Sorry to hear about your tiredness. If it persists after a week you could talk to your doctor. But try to get some rest & catch up on your sleep & see if that helps. Prayers your seizures calm down & your tiredness goes away. Take care. Your friend in Texas, Becky
Im TIRED!!!!!!!!!
Depends on how severe seizuure was to help body recover. A simple partial no prob but a severe drop down one my need at least one night of rest to recover physically. Please consult Dr if so severe to avoid future ones too.
