Seizures?: Discuss what you experience and what others have witness with a doctor. Spells as initial evaluation don't require neurologist or cardiologist initially but a good general practitioner can point you in the right direction or manage the initial workup.

Seizure?: You should consult a neurologist. Their training is the differential diagnosis of events that may be seizures or mimic seizures.
