Hi, Thank you for posting your query. Your symptoms are suggestive of complex partial seizures. An EEG, followed by MRI brain-epilepsy protocol, would help in establishing the diagnosis. There are several good medications to treat these kinds of seizures, such as carbamazepine, levetiracetam, Aborigine, etc. The medications can be started after the tests have been done. Treating and reducing anxiety would also help in seizure control. I hope it helps. Please get back if you require any additional information. Best wishes, Chat Doctor. Ly/
