Does anyone know anything about sezuires while sleeping?

I have complex partial sezuires. Hard to get up in AM. Some days I wake with slight on or at sleeping sideways or with head at foot of the bed. I wake up numb and with head pressure. Usually makes me late to work. Not sure how complex they get as during any of my sezuires I don't loose awareness or conscience mess.

After I do get up I sometimes get giddy and in ways hyper.

I suffered from complex partial seizures until I had a right temporal lobectomy. in 1993. I never suffered seizures in my sleep, until one night. I had broken up with my boyfriend and became depressed. One night I woke up because I was having a seizure.
