Epilepsy and Narcolepsy

Hi I'm Scott I'm new here. I have both Epilepsy and Narcolepsy. I have a question for everyone. How is Epilepsy and Narcolepsy related?? Can one cause the other?? My mother's doctor said that Narcolepsy is another form of Epilepsy. Is that true or not?? Where can I find information on it?

  1. @CommunityMember177,
    Welcome to EpilepsyDisease.com! We are so grateful to have you as a member. As for the difference between Epilepsy and Narcolepsy, I recommend speaking with your neurologist about this question. They know more about you and your medical conditions. This link does give you some basic information about Epilepsy, https://epilepsydisease.com/basics
