Hi Franny,

I am sorry but I cant help you. I havent heard of anything like hormonal seizures, except probably eclampsia of pregnancy, but that is quite different from the condition you have described. To me it seems to be a neurologic condition and the only meaningful way of getting further would be to have a seizure diagnosed by a dr or recorded on EEG/PET/MNR. For your info
