Been epileptic for 35 years and seizure free for 21 years. About two weeks ago at church felt dizzy, panicking and shaking, had ct scan, mri and eeg. On eeg they did a 50 min recording and man said I have got 3 x 1 second of stuff he said Although was panicking so that may be it but really worried what it can be. As anyone else had panic attacks I'm on Lamotragine

Hello Kiera
It is often the case that people with epilepsy can in life start to get panic attacks. Sometimes, but not always these 'panic' attacks are known to replicate epilepsy. But are Not attacks of epilepsy. These are known as Non epilepsy attack disorder or psychogenic seizures
The best answer that I can offer to you is to contact your neurologist secretary and ask them to advise your neurologist.
Here's hoping that this helps you.
