My seizures went undiagnosed for several years because I was having them in my sleep. I lived alone and woke in the morning with terrible headaches. They treated the headaches not the cause! It wasn’t until I didn’t go home after work and go to bed that I had a seizure after not sleeping for over 24 hours someone witnessed one. Finally a diagnosis!
