This happens (to my knowledge...she may be diminishing it) only a few times a year. (Without medication) That's why the diagnosis seems so heavy.
Brain scans don't tell you much about epilepsy, she would need to get an EEG done and its basically a bunch of little wires that connect to your scalp temporarily.....
