What Causes Rolling Of Eyes And Body Stiffness In A Child?

My daughter is 4 years old. She has been having spells since she was 4months old. When she gets hurt or bumps her head she cries and passes out. Eyes roll back in her head and body goes limp. However, sometimes she is crying out, not holding her breath or having trouble catching her breath. Last night however she bumped her head. She cried, eyes rolled back in her head, went limp, I scooped her up and her legs started convulsing, seconds later she was making snoring sounds, then became conscious and doesn t remember anything. She has had EEG when she was 1 and it came back normal. Can you tell me what this MAY be or what I should do please?
