seizures

i was in a really bad car wreck 3 yrs ago. i had to get staples in my head. just had a sever concusion and whiplash. about 2 months after the wreck i blacked out. that was the only time it happened now for about 1yr. i have been having these spells and they are worse. i get this really strong since of deja vu' and start feeling funny in my stomach, i get really hot and really cold and sweat at the same time i start feeling like i am having a panic attack my heart is racing and i start feeling weak and dizzy. i am unable to hold my head up it keeps falling back and my eyes roll in the back of my head and i eventually fall over. standing sitting it dont matter. my doctor thinks i might be having seizures. does anyone else know. i have no money or insurance. i need help so any answers would be useful. oh and i also have this metal taste in my mouth. and headaches. after the spells is when i have my headaches. and my dreams seem to real. if i am being attacked i fight literally in my sleep. plz help??
