petit mal siezures

« on: May 08, 2010, 06:11:57 PM »

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.
