Answer by Dr Vinod, MBBS,FcGP (doctor) on Fri 20, Nov 2009 11:18am:

Hello pharmtech1980, The most common reason would be due to fatigue, anxiety attacks or due to dehydration. I would suggest you to take her to a physician for a proper diagnosis and also check if she has any migraine or seizure attacks. If required an MRI would be helpful. Take care!
