I agree that his obvious breathing problems should be dealt with first and then see what happens. If he continues to sleep walk, then talk to a sleep doctor about an evaluation and a possible sleep study. It’s certainly possible that it was from sleepwalking, but he was also smoking marijuana.

We went to an ENT this week and the dr. recommended septoplasty because of his deviated septum. He's also having enlarged tonsils remoeved at the same time. He's broke his nose when he was approx 15 years old and it was repaired but the surgeon then told us he'd probably have to have surgery again. Well, he just wandered into a neighbor's house after drinking and yes, smoking marijuana, and passing out in a passenger seat of a car. The car was not moving. The kids involved just sat in it to smoke. The other people in the car went back into the house and left him in he car sleeping. A couple of hours later, he was arrested for burglary. He had wandered into the neighbor's house. He doesn't remember anything; slept through a house alarm and only woke when the homeowner grabbed him. The only thing we can tie this to is sleepwalking. The dr. says this is certainly possible but is not recommending the sleep study because he clearly needs the nose repaired and the tonsils out. My son is 19.
