Dizziness, Disorientation, Memory Loss, Pins An Needles In Arms, Hands. History Of Epilepsy. Treatment?

My mum has had several dizzy spells over the past few months, coupled with disorientation, temporary mild memory loss and pins and needles in her right arm and hand . She is an epileptic and has been on drugs to treat that for 15 years, she has not had an epileptic fit for some 8-10 years. What could this be, she is not keen to go to docs immediately incase it effects her driving!! Can you advise?
