Is a 6-year-old girl suffering from epilepsy?

Patient's question:

I had a period of dizziness and confusion before the New Year because the child only ate potatoes and refused vegetables, leading to poor nutrition. A year ago, I suddenly fainted, fell to the ground with all four limbs paralyzed, and fully recovered after a few minutes. After recovery, I broke out in a full sweat, experienced weakness in all four limbs, and a month ago, the symptoms reappeared along with an attempt to bite my tongue. Currently, I have difficulty deep breathing, palpitations, weakness in all four limbs, and moderate abnormalities in my EEG.
Hello, is it epilepsy? About my past treatment and its effectiveness: I have been thoroughly examined in hospitals many times, and the doctors said it was cervical spondylosis. Treatments included massage, acupuncture, wearing a neck brace, and taking naps without a pillow.
What kind of assistance do you expect: I hope to receive a diagnosis.
