Recommend you see specialists such as a Neurologist if you suspect seizures...they perform EEG's which measure brain activity, while they try to trigger a seizure.  These measurements will help rule out seizures.
See your family physician and they can refer you to other specialist if the Neurologist isn't the answer.
Good luck.
