1 1/2 year old with possible seizures

Wed, 07/08/2015 - 20:10

My daughter just turned 1 1/2 and she has had 3 episodes in the last 3 months where she wakes up between 4-5 am with a terrified cry followed by rapid blinking and her body jerking. She had an EEG done today but nothing showed up it was normal so the doctor said it was just night terrors.anyone have any advice? Do you think the doctor is right or should I get a second opinion?
