Is Rapid Blinking Of Eyes A Symptom Of Panic Attack?

I have epilepsy that is well controlled by Keppra and Phenobarbital. I have been having episodes of confusion, rapid blinking of my eyes, saying things that do not make sense, eyes rolling back in my head. I repeat sentences many times. Sometimes I sit in a chair and just stare. My neurologist has done EEG. Previously I had Grand Mal seizures. I have not had a Grand Mal since 2009. My neurologist thinks the episodes I described are stress related. The last episodes I had was before a surgery my husband had and before I was going on my first overseas vacation. Could these be panic attacks. The longest one I had was two days long. My husband tries to get me to sleep but I am get in bed and then keep getting out of bed.
