What Causes Pseudo Seizures?

I have had seizure like symptoms, without blacking out, diagnosed as pseudo seizures. I have had 3 back surgeries. After the 3rd back surgery it was discovered I had a Dural from the first surgery. No one can seem to figure out the cause of the seizures or tremors. I look like I have Parkinson. The tremors usually come on when I am lying down at night. Sometimes they last a few minutes and others all day for several days. Any ideas what could be wrong? Seems like I have been checked for everything, now I am seeing a psychiatrist and even she admits she has no idea. I have had a 3 day EEG and these are non-epileptic.
