Suggest Remedies For Seizures
My 18 year old daughter has blackouts followed by headache and muscle ache. She has had several seizures in the past, always after seeing something like blood or bones. Neurologist said it was normal and that she will grow out of it. She just had a black out spell but didn't see or think of anything to disturb her. I don't know what to do!

Hii.
I understand your concern.
Black out spell need invistigations. Investigation like EEG / fundus examination / CT scan / MRI will useful to give more confirmatory idea about her illness.
MRI with epilepsy protocol can help to locate seizure activities. It can be treated with anti epileptic medicine.
Neurological work up and investigation can help for better treatment.
Take 2nd opinion of neurologist for better assistance.
Glad to help you further.
Thank you.
