1. My EEGs and MRIs were always clear. My seizures are idiopathic though - it means they don't know where the seizures originate from.
2. I don't know but I would read up on it before trying it.

Seizures can be caused by alot of things - allergies, heat stroke, lack of sleep, malnutrition, skipping medication, other medical conditions, etc. sounds like you should get a full physical and a battery of tests. Between now and then keeping a journal for your doctors helps.
