Normal tests good: There are lots of causes for seizures- the normal brain and spinal tests are good because that means there is not an infection and brain is not formed wrong Blood tests may help look for a build up of substances in the body that can cause seizures and seeing a neurologist is a good idea I copied a website that has more information- best wishes for your family- I know seizures are very scary! http://www.epilepsy.com/learn/seizures-youth/about-newborns-and-infants

Pediatric Neurology?: Be sure and see a board certified pediatric neurologist for your recommendations in her care. Your doc will explain her type of seizure, estimate chances of recurrence taking into account her history and presentation, course and data.
