Hi Lybrate ,this loc with some gesturing could be part of subtle seizures occurring. Levera alone is not sufficient for her seizure. She needs evaluation by an eeg and mri ,so we can pick a right diagnosis and medicine for her.

It seems your wife requires escalation of anti-seizure medication, for proper seizure control however the type of seizure needs to be determined along with the evaluation of some investigation, if you are interested you can share your details with me privately. Stay home stay safe.
