Don't rely on just any doctor. Find someone with a lot of experience in seizures, because many family practice and internists, even some neurologists, just aren't familiar with the more rare kinds of disorders.
I hope your friend is doing better! Thank you for your input on the situation, I really think I will hunt for a good doctor that knows their stuff. It was obvious that the past doctors really had no clue how to handle the situation.
