I have a 9yr old child who sleep runs about 8 to 20 times a night. This has been going on now for 9 mos. Each episode only last a few seconds to maybe 2 minutes. She has had a sleep study done which showed she has these episodes right before she goes into the deep sleep stage. Therefore she is not getting her deep sleep. They have also done an ambulatory eeg, which showed no signs of siezures. So, for everything they can and can’t tell me so far no one can tell me what is wrong or what is causing it. She is now showing signs of add which I belive is due to sleep deprevation. Her grades are starting to drop. I have had to cut my hours and stepdown from my position at work to help her at school just to keep her grades up. If anyone knows what the problem is or can refer me to someone who can help, please let me know.
