Hello Deniss,

Is your daughter being seen by a Pediatric Neurologist
or Pediatric Epileptologist? If not I strongly recommend
that you see a Neurologist that specializes in Seizure
Disorders / Epilepsy or an Epileptologist (A Neurologist
that is an Epilepsy / Seizure Disorder Expert).

They can rule-out and make the exact diagnostics, and
you can always obtain a 2nd opinion. I'm a strong advocate
of 2nd opinions!

If you do not know of one, you can find one here:

FIND A DOCTOR - by the Epilepsy Foundation

Thanks to American Epilepsy Society for providing this
list of Neurologist & Epileptologists.

And another way of finding one is via this MAP:

Level 3/4 Epilepsy Centers - by National Association of Epilepsy Centers

This Epilepsy Centers have the best specialist(s) on site
typically, and Cleveland Clinics also have one of the best
Epilepsy care and they have branches all over the United
States as well and you can find your location via their
website as well - and they have Level 4 Centers too.

Cleveland Clinic Main Page

Hope these information above helps you out a lot!
