Timing of Seizures: Frontal lobe (Noon to Midnight); Temporal lobe (Midnight and Noon)

Very interesting.  My daughter has seizures and they happen after noon and usually later in 99% of the time.  We are able to coordinate riskier activities like swimming in the morning.  We also tend to book air plan flights in the morn to avoid seizure on the plane, etc.  Does anyone else have experience with seizures that happen only at certain parts of the day?

Timing of Seizures | epilepsy.com
The investigators analyzed records from patients who had an ambulatory EEG from 24-72 hours. They maintained a log of symptoms and signaled the time when symptoms occurred by pushing the event detection button during their EEG. Eight Hundred Thirty-one (831) reports were analyzed and 44 patients had definite seizure events. A total of 129 seizures were recorded with various locations in the cortex. Frontal lobe seizures occurred more frequently between noon and midnight as compared to temporal lobe seizures which occurred much more frequently between midnight and noon. A separate analysis of the frontal lobe seizures revealed a cluster of seizures that tended to center around 6:33 a.m. Temporal lobe seizures had 24 seizures that seemed to cluster around 8:50 p.m.
