I see my pdoc next week, I'll see what she says. I wonder if this is related to my lower sleep.

You ask excellent questions!
You must be a scientist!
Many people take magnesium at night because it calms their CNS and muscles.
Both brain zaps and sleep are at least theoretically (and potentially) helped by magnesium.
*Here is a very popular line of magnesium supplements actually named "Calm" and is incredibly popular, as an example :

Magnesium is well-known for overall calming effects, for restless legs syndrome, regulating heartbeat and more.
If I were to choose attempting to treat brain zaps and/or sleep, I'd want the magnesium over any anti-epileptic, by far. (In hopes I could escape the medication and its side-effects.)
Please note: At some dose, one might experience loose stools and this dose is different for everyone.
*This same formula is available in generic forms in most nutrition stores and only recently in many drug and grocery stores in the U.S.
Oh! The form of magnesium is important. The form in these supplements are the best for this use: calcium carbonate. Other forms of calcium may also be helpful Avoid magnesium oxide, which is not well assimilated by the body.
Please let me know if i can help in any way.
My Best
