Hello @vg222622bb, Welcome to Connect. That sounds a little scary. You mentioned the sleepwalking lasted all night and you drove around and did different things with no memory of what you did. Did your wife ride in the car with you? Was she able to wake you up?

Hi and thanks for responding. Yes, my wife was with me but couldn't wake me. The first episode lasted all night and into the next day. The second was just during the night when I usually am sleeping. Both times were after surgery- A full back operation and the other was full knees replacement. Other than depression, I'm OK and am 74 and in good health. The funny part of the first time I wandered around the house examining things, thinking "wow, whoever lives here has things exactly like mine"
