Has anyone had this type of seizure?

My daughter is 10 and about 8 months ago we thought she passed out at school. Now the passing out has started looking like seizures. They last from 2-10 minutes. She can be doing anything and she will just drop and becomes very cramped up her fingers curl up and sometimes you can see twitching in one of her hands or feet. Yesterday the muscle in one of her cheeks was twitching. When she wakes up it takes a few minutes for her to respond and she acts a little drunk for about 10 minutes. Every time this happened it lasts a little longer than the time before. This has happened 8 times unless she's doing this in her sleep. Has anyone experienced anything close to this?

Seizures are not characteristic of MS. They do happen, but not more than in the non-MS population. Try posting this on the regular or expert neurology forum.

I would take your dtr to the dr and let the dr know what has happened.  Something isn't right and I'm not sure of what type of seizure it could be.

let us know what the dr says?
