Staying calm & collected is very hard to do when your heart is breaking. Singing is the only thing that calms my son. It calms me. Feer & frustration create panic. I pray you can find what works for her.

What worked for my son was a vitamin B 100 vitamin. It helped with the side effects of the keppra and some of the anxiety and panic issues that come with E itself. We used Trader Joes brand vitamion B 100. There are so many artificial color and flavors in vitamins you buy in "normal" stores we chose the natural ones. Colors and flavors have been proven to induce seizures and tics.
He takes Nordic Naturals omaega 3-6-9 fish oil as well. Happy to say he has been seizure free since Janaury of 2009 and been of the keppra since February of 2010.

From what I've lerned, she has to have seizure while connected to e.e.g. or results will be normal. My son was on his 5th 24hour test. I requested he stay untill he had one. 64hours later he did. After 2 & 1/2 years of testing we had answers!
