Default New member - bizarre symptoms

I was diagnosed with epilepsy, but I think there is more to it.
I suppose I'm worried about it being an underlying cardiac problem is bc the tachycardia, etc all started before I ever had a seizure and before I was on meds. I have only had about six seizures in my life, and all this new, well respected doctor, had to say on my first visit was you have had enough seizures to prove it is epilepsy. He did no tests, no response to my questions about any questions I had about any possible cardiac problems, and I don't even want to see another doctor because they all do stuff like that or say they can find nothing wrong. I have severe tachycardia almost daily, so i know it's not a per or post ictal thing.
And within the past three months I have had two episodes lasting one or maybe more week of blacking out,mnot remembering anything, finally becoming lucid and seeing that all my furniture was turned over or broken. This past tme I broke every lampshade in my bedroom. Somehow shattered. Plastic trash can, broke a wooden chair, and a huge blood stain on my mattress because for some reason all the sheets had been pulled off the bed. I have been COVERED in bruises on my face, arms, torso, and legs. All of this is So scary I have no idea what to do pe who to talk to.

Any thoughts?
