Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
One needs to be doubly sure but this episode appears to be like a seizure. He needs to undergo an EEG test. If the EEG shows any signs of epilepsy then the child needs proper anti-epileptic medication like lamitor or levera.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
