Partial seizure?

Last night Rick woke up about 2 am. He went to the bathroom but when he came back to bed he acted seizurish for about 30 minutes or so. He had that glazed look on his face and he tossed and turned in the bed. He would have gotten up if I had let him. He had severe body twitching. Finally he settled down and went to sleep.

Then at 6 am he woke up with a start and started moaning. Again he had severe body twitching. Sometimes he would hold his breath. This was a little different than the earlier episode. I felt this could actually be a seizure, just not the grand mal. It lasted about 10 minutes and then he went back to sleep. It is 8 am now and he is still sleeping. He hasn’t had his meds yet this morning.
