Q: Convulsions??? Seizures Anyone

Hi my name is sam
I am 22yrs old female from australia and I have been having seizures for over 16 months now and no one can seem to find out what is wrong with me. They think its a kind of epilepsy, but I also worry too. So maybe its and anxiety. I am not sure as there is no proof. I was just wondering if anyone else here has the same symptoms, I have been in hospital 2 times in the last 3 months due to seizures and I am on epileptic medications. I had alot of tests done lst time I was in hospital and they couldnt really find any explination there eithere except for the fact that my blood glucose level was slightly elevated, although not out of the normal range. So I am now to have a full diabetes test soon. My blood preasure was 130/80 and my heart rate was 90 because I was freaking.
Please help me

My sister used to suffer from something similar. She was 22 at the time and out of know where she started having seizures. She probably had 3 in a 6 month period of time. Doctors didnt know why, and she started taking paxil.... She has not had one since then and that was 4 years ago, so it definitely can be anxiety related!
