Hi Michelle,
I talked with my vet and asked her what she thought about what was
going on with Bramble. She asked if he had been tested for toxopsamosis
(sp?), she said FIV+ cats can hace seizures related to this. Has he
been tested for toxopasmosis? If not I would get that done, it is
reatable with antibiotics. She said she had never heard of cats having
seizures from calcivirus. Also she said there was NO reason not to give
seizure medication to a cat on interferon (either one, human or
feline). And she can't imagine why a vet would withhold the medication.
Here this is an article that describes what some of the symthoms can be,
look under signs:

Here are many more about it:

I hope you find out what is going on with Bramble soon, prayers coming
to you both.
