Could it be epilepsy? Has she seen a neurologist?

Strokes don't only affect old people, they can affect young people too. Does sound alot like epilepsy, could also be what are known as 'TIAs' - 'Transient Ischaemic Attacks', could be any number of neurological, toxicological, physiological conditions. Without seeing exactly what goes on, no-one can say exactly what the problem is.
Safest option : She needs to be properly assessed by her doctor/hospital and see a specialist sooner rather than later. It can take time to make a definitive diagnosis, so follow-up appointments at hospitals or with doctors should be attended if recommended.

Has she also been under a lot of stress just before this all started? Our bodies can do really weird things if we are under stress for a long period of time. And probably worrying about what on earth is actually wrong with her is also not doing her any good at all.
I hope that they manage to discover what is wrong & how to treat it soon.
I don't know if any of these will help you:

She obviously has something wrong with her,first try a different hospital,then if no success try a psychiatrist,her problems may
be psychosomatic.I wish I could better advise you,but I`m no
doctor.Does she have any dependencies (drugs or alcohol) that
might bring on her symptoms.Sorry I can`t help,but U got my
sympathy,as well as her !!

Could it be siezures, and doesnt she go to the doctors?
I would assume the hospital has checked that out seeing it is the most obvious.
I would get other opinions, the poor thing!

I had a good friend who had the same thing happen to her, as it turns out she has MS. She really needs to see a neurologist (sp?)
