Yes, definitely, do that, but, have the vet call you back when he has a minute, rather than discuss at length with a vet tech.
There are medications that can stop the seizure activity and make her more comfortable.

I had a dog that was on a daily low dose of phenobarbital (seizures started at 9 months) he lived till old age. He was not sedated and did not have a change in personality. He was a happy dog.

PS: The general rule of thumb was, if they are having more than 1 seizure a month, they need meds. Discuss with the vet. Maybe this has changed, and there may be other medication options now (other than phenobarb).
Even on meds they can have break through seizures, but, they tend to be mild.
