Im 20 years old and i started having seizures in November of 2007. In June I got the official Dx of complex partial seizures. They were under control until recently. I've started having more Complex ones but now something new is happening and the Dr dosen't exactly know what is going on. I am currently on 3500mg of keppra per day.
Last week I remember doing my hair getting ready to go to my class. (I am in college living away from home in the dorms) and the next thing i remember is being on the basketball court of my school not knowing how i got there and bring very confused as to where i was and didn't know how to get back to my dorm. Anyone have this? I am very scared and my parents are talking about me moving back home because of this.
Help, I am desperate.

Are you severely sleep deprived by any chance? Have you pulled any all-nighters, for instance?
The reason I ask, is that years ago I used to work the overnight shift as a security guard. I'd also work overtime, and I was extremely sleep deprived. I also had TLE, but I didn't know it until about 2 years ago. Back then, what would happen to me was that I'd start making my rounds of the building, and I'd "wake up" in places where I didn't know where I was or how I got there. One time I "woke up" trying to put my key in an electrical outlet right across the hall from the door where I was supposed to be putting my key.
Extreme sleep deprivation was what caused this particular symptom to show up. Usually my partial seizures just seem like short sleep episodes, but I don't actually go anywhere.
