Possible Siezure?

Hoping someone can identify with this. Last night at 1AM Brittany flew off the bed onto the floor, this immediately woke me because of the noise, when I called her name she was laying on the floor on her side peeing. She was a little unresponsive for a second or 2. After a few moments she seemed fine and climbed back into bed. This happened again just a short while ago 4AM, she jumped off the bed, didn't fall or pee, just seemed to shake a little (no head shake, just a little body shake, she was a little out of it as well. I looked at her mouth and her gums were very pale. She also has a runny nose and almost sounds like she has had a cold all day (lots of sniffles) As I am writing this she has climbed back onto the bed, seems normal (except very runny nose) color has somewhat returned to her gums. I am taking her to the vet as soon as the open. Any one experience anything similar?

Thanks!

Update on Brittany

Just brought her home. The blood work came back just fine. He diagnosed her with Ideopathic Epilepsy. He did not recommend pheno at this time since this was actually her 2nd episode in 2 months. (turns out she had one a few months ago while at my parents house, didn't think much of until she did the same thing my parents described, thought she was just having a really bad dream). Anyway she is back to old self right now, very hyper and wanting to nothing buy play. He said to keep an eye on her and let him know of any more occurences. Hopefully there won't be anymore.

I am happy to hear that she will be ok. I am sorry to hear that she has epilepsy. I had a lab that had epilepsy, he had them more often when he was a puppy and later on at old age, but he didn't have too many occurances in betwee. I wish you the best of luck! send her lots of love from Oscar, Jasmine and Paula.
