I started having petit mals a year or two after i was diagnosised with FSGS - is there any connection between siezures and neph. disorders? I have them rarely and only when i am sleeping.

I've never heard of this, but that means very little, I suppose.  I've had fsgs for almost 20 years and I've never had seizures.  That must be very frightening for you.  Does your neph think there is a connection?  If so, what exactly would be the trigger?  I'd be very interested to know.
