Is this completely Curable.....Is this a seizure with attended consciousness

[healthplease]

Hello Eveyone,
Greetings,
I was going through one of the interaction with tazbuglady on partial seizures and I got interested as the story is similar for me n my daughter. She is also of the same age (9 years and 10 months) and has been diagnosed with 's/o genralised epilepsy' by her neuro who did a hour long sleep deprived VEEG on her only this month. Her brain MRI with Contrast is absolutely normal. Prior to this there were two episodes of sudden falling (one per year and that too during the peak summer periods during morning school assembly and though we approached her Paediatrics also as well as the Neuro but then also the EEG (it was routine for 15-30 minutes and was conducted four -five days after the episode) was done and as it was normal, the episode was discarded as syncope attack. This time two months back, she woke up suddenly in the middle of her sleep and was 'disoriented' for few seconds with a puzzled look and was not able to recognize her mother or me but then in a fleeting moment it was all over, She went to the washroom and was normal and continued with her sleep. Then It was again and this time in July while playing in the school playground at 1250 hrs in the noon she had this 'seizure' wherein her friends reported that all of a sudden she sat quite, and was hitting her thighs and head with both of her arms a few times not very hard, was not able to recognize one of her friends and was complaining of headache. She was relating to the activities during this period like when she was offered water, she drank, walked with her friends from the play ground to the staffroom which was on the first floor, the teacher observed her weak and drained-off, she asked her to be in front of cooler and after a while she went back to her class and attended the two lectures before the school was off. She came to home completely drained off and slept without having anything.
She is sharp and above average in her studies and normally scores A and A+ grades n her class, has secured first position for three consecutive levels of ABACUS and dancing is her passion.
She initially use to get confused with 'b' and’d’ and 'on' and 'no' but that was that, now she no more confuses with these letters or words.
She has now been prescribed with 'Valparin Chrono 300mg' one in the morning and one in night for two years and the doctor (Neuro) will see her after a month's time.

She has been advised normal siezure precautions like no swimming, but is allowed to continue with her dance classes.

Also she complains of severe stomach pain some times around the naval, this is chronic, I mean every 6-8 months, a day or two are when she complains, her ultrasound report for the whole abdomen is absolutely normal, she loves to go to school and does not wish to miss it even with the stomach aching.  

My concern is if the diagnosis and the medicinal course she is put on with are correct and what are the chances of total cure in such cases. Thanks in advance for responses in advance,

Thanks for your response and concern for my daughter's health. I mentioned doctors because I found the Formal address "Dr." as prefix  or Doctorate in Medicines (M.D.) with certain names on the forum mentioned . Nevertheless, I value any suggestion here which helps me understand this health condition, I mean Epilepsy. The stomach pain is not because of the medicines as the medicine has only started a few weeks whereas, as I mentioned, the stomach pain is much older and random in nature. She has also been diagnosed with mild Iron deficiency and has been prescribed with iron supplement. A little loss of appetite is there, but that's seem to be ok and most probably temporary in nature. This may be due to the medicines also, I presume. I am also thinking of taking a second advise on the medicinal course she has been put to. She is otherwise doing fine.

We are not doctors here just people with experience.  It sounds like your daughter might want to try another medication. There are many different types of seizures.  If she is having stomach problems it may be a type of reaction to the medication.  Please come back and update us on her progress.

Dear Doctors,
I posted my concerns about my daughters health with great expectations of getting the support of the community here but I am observing an unbearable silence. Pl help so that I can decide on further course. I understand this is not a consultation or prescription which I will get from here and I am not looking for it either but just an informal advise as is the way on such forums.

Thanks a lot.

I really appreciate the comments, the silence is difficult to appreciate.
