Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your daughter has seizures and she is taking levetiracetam.
Her fainting and breathlessness is not due to that. She may have anemia, hypoglycaemia or hypotension which leads to fainting. She should check her hemoglobin, blood sugar level and blood pressure. Then she should take treatment accordingly.
Continue her drugs for seizures. If don't have gone through MRI then go for MRI once to rule out brsin lesion.

Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
