Symptoms you describe may be of partial seizures (seizures where one doesn't lose consciousness). Therefore, you should go back to your doctor and report the symptoms.
For your anxiety, you may consult a psychiatrist. A psychiatrist is also trained in neurology. Therefore, he/she will be able to evaluate you for both anxiety and seizures.
I hope this answer is helpful.
