Good point, heaps ... I have seizures (petite mals and myoclonus) and can relate to this too. (I'm a freakin mess !) My attacks involved an inablity to speak clearly too. All my words were slurred and I was pissed that I couldn't talk. I'm sure everyone thought I'd lost my mind .. and they were right ... lol .. This took about 60 minutes of complete rest and a meal to undo. I "think" this is different from narcolepsy.
I was told that this could be either a seizure or a tia. I've done this for years now but I started doing this everyday for awhile. And it was particularly bad when I overdid it. This was right before I had my first and only two hour seizure that landed me in the ER. I was eating those GF foods which I KNEW caused me to have myoclonus and I was drinking a tiny bit of coffee and eating some chocolate every day. I was just trying to have a good time .. I actually haven't done this since eliminating caffeine and stopping those gf foods ... kow ... kow .. kow ... lol ...
I was in the process of having these episodes evaluated but we had to call it off. Part of the evaluation process was to look at my lung and heart capacities and those tests included drugs. My doctor said he couldn't do it because of my seizure.
