Hi, my co-worker has a problem. He wakes in the middle of the night, and he's paralyzed, and has trouble breathing, and has to make him self go back to sleep in order to wake up. During these times, he can move his eyes, but cannot speak.
Has anyone heard of anything like this, or know the name of it, or know a good resource to find the answer??
Serious responces only please!

MAY BE A TYPE OF PETITE MAL SEIZURE OR SLEEP PARALYSIS. GET AN EEG WITH A SLEEP STUDY TO GET OBJECTIVE MEASUREMENT OF THE CONDITION
