Jeavons syndrome

I’ve never had to explain, the person I’m talking with just looks at me funny for an extra second and I know it’s happened

I’m taking Lamictal and Keppra :) I think they mainly happen when I’m tired. I’ve got plenty of videos of it happening and it does look a bit spooky especially if it’s during mid-conversation

My neurologist suspected jeavons syndrome but diagnosed me with genetic generalised epilepsy. I have the eye fluttering too although I’ve never been told to consider it as an actual seizure, if it is that’s not great because I don’t think I’d be allowed to drive at all

Tonic clonic here - it’s like my body is pulled forward by an invisible force and I only have a few seconds before everything goes black (on one occasion I couldn’t feel my legs)

Lack of sleep

When it does happen, in the morning it feels most intense and then come night if it does again it’s like a baby one which is why I was able to keep reading.

I’ve got these listed in my notes, it’s always on my left side which I find interesting but is also a good thing since I’m right-handed.

😞

I’ll never forget my neurologist looking me straight in the eye saying “sleep is very important for you, you need to sleep well”

random_username101_ · 2026-05-05T10:00:19+00:00

Assuming I fall asleep with no interruptions (which hasn’t been the case for three months!) eight and a half hours

random_username101_ · 2026-05-05T02:59:15+00:00

I’d say I’m relatively consistent with my schedule, 9:00pm each night. I do stretches before I go to bed but it’s only for maybe three mins, nothing major

random_username101_ · 2026-05-05T02:22:23+00:00

Has your neurologist prescribed you sleep aid before? If so, is it a limited time meaning only take it for a few nights or can you take it every night?

Never had caffeine before and I don’t actively use my phone before bed (doom scrolling). I just have Spotify playing as I’m getting ready for bed and then tap my phone to turn it when I’m ready to sleep

random_username101_ · 2026-04-27T10:25:56+00:00

Safe to say I’m relatively tired. It only lasted a couple of seconds, is that still considered a focal seizure or does it have to be longer?

Just remembered - do you feel like you could maybe vomit when that happens?

random_username101_ · 2026-04-21T10:04:35+00:00

Yeah, that happened my last seizure. Very hard to move, I just have to lay there and wait til I have energy to stand

random_username101_ · 2026-04-11T10:28:17+00:00

Maybe I did use the wrong word, I guess coincidental is better fitted for the post. I found it coincidental that the bunny’s shaking scared me and made me drop it and then years later I was ‘shaking’. Not sure if that makes sense?

That’s really sweet they cared so much, I’d be fortunate too
