there was an episode of Diagnosis detectives on bbc last week:
The neurologist explains that the seizures are either from epilepsy or 'dissasociative seizures'; interestingly they do conduct tests and manage to get results when the patient is actually having a seizure.
I can't find the right words at the moment but basically as there was no abnormal electrical activity going on in the brain the diagnosis was FND.

The cardologist turns out to be wrong.patient who is desperately searching for answers. 43-year-old army veteran Andrew suffers up to 50 unexplained seizures every week, and it is having a devastating effect on his life. After discussing his medical records with the team, consultant cardiologist Dr Boon Lim and consultant neurologist Dr Paul Jarman have very different theories about what might be causing Andrew’s dramatic seizures.
