My daughter is having some kind of seizure

[Makenzie22]

My daughter is 10 and about 8 months ago we thought she passed out at school. Now the passing out has started looking like seizures. They last from 2-10 minutes. She can be doing anything and she will just drop and becomes very cramped up her fingers curl up and sometimes you can see twitching in one of her hands or feet. Yesterday the muscle in one of her cheeks was twitching. When she wakes up it takes a few minutes for her to respond and she acts a little drunk for about 10 minutes. Every time this happened it lasts a little longer than the time before. This has happened 8 times unless she's doing this in her sleep. Has anyone experienced anything close to this?

We are seeing a neurologist. She had an eeg and it came back normal. She is having a MRI next week and a 24 hour eeg. She doesn't stare she will just tighten up and the collapse. Her body is all very tight. She just has little ticks in her hands and feet. I am so confused and the neurologist acts like it's no big deal and it's probably not to him but this is my child who is terrified. He hasn't told me anything about seizures or what type he thinks it might be.

Yes as a matter of fact, if she has starring episodes it most likely will be generalized seizures. That is how my epilepsy began. I began with blank starting, then a slight twitch in both arms, then a twitch to the neck, and lastly the sudden drop. I recomend to consult with a neurologist as soon as possible!

Have you spoken to her doctor about this?  That is what I would do in this case.  I certainly hope that you find out what is going on and can get it under control.  Please come back and let us know what you find out.
