Scared & Confused..Did my doctor say I have epilepsy?

I have bipolar 2 disorder and have been experiencing a nonstop tingling sensation over my entire body since November. I thought it was due to my medications, but stopping the meds didn't make the tingling go away. I got an MRI and saw a neurologist. The neurologist said I have dark spots on my parietal lobe, which could indicate scar tissue. He did a thorough exam and asked me a lot of questions. I told him I have a history of fainting my entire life (at least 12 times since I was 7, occurs about every 2 years). The last time I fainted was 2 years ago at work. Fainting runs in my family and we've all had several types of tests done and doctors have never found anything. I described all this to him, and my night terrors, and my trouble concentrating at work and light sensitivity and my migraines. Putting it all together, a lot of my experiences do sound similar to seizures and epilepsy. At the end of the appointment, he told me he thinks I have a seizure disorder and told me to research "partial epilepsy." He said he wasn't going to put a diagnosis in my chart yet because then he would have to report it and he wants to confirm with an EEG. He said even if the EEG came back negative, he wants me to come back in 6 weeks and start me on new meds. He said the Lamictal I'm taking for my bipolar is "what's saving me." So, did he diagnose me with epilepsy? It sounds like no matter how the EEG turns out, he's going to put me on different anti-seizure medications to treat me. Does this non-stop tingling sensation mean I've been having non-stop seizures for months? He asked if they got worse when I have migraines and they do. I also have a lot of anxiety, feel hot and over-stimulated, and can't concentrate at work sometimes. I researched parietal lobe epilepsy and that turns out to be one of the rarer forms, so it's difficult for me to understand what's going on. I don't know how to process what he told me and since I have bipolar and am already in the process of changing my medications, I'm left with a lot of anxiety and am scared about this diagnosis. On the one hand, it could be very positive because it would explain a lot of symptoms I've had that I've attributed to medication side effects. On the other hand, parietal lobe epilepsy is rare and the information I can find on it varies and I'm not sure if it explains this nonstop tingling. I'm also scared of the long-term implications of this diagnosis. Either way, I'm terrified. I'm scared to drive to work on my 65 mile commute to work each day. I'm scared that if I feel overstimulated at work again or get a migraine, that I will get into a car accident because that's what happened a month ago when I felt that way. And my migraines have gotten worse over the past several weeks, most likely due partly to the stress of all this. I don't know how to process this. "Partial epilepsy" doesn't appear to be a thing. I'm guessing he means "partial seizures," but I also have complete fainting episodes where I get a feeling of weightlessness in the pit of my stomach, followed by complete lack of consciousness, followed by bursting into tears, feeling confused, and overwhelmed, and also very sweaty, pale, and clammy. After researching epilepsy, these do sound very similar to generalized seizures. My doctor said when the seizure spreads to both hemispheres of my brain, that's when I would faint. So my questions are: 1. Did my neurologist diagnose me with epilepsy? 2. How do I keep myself from panicking until I see him again in 6 weeks to get the test results and start on new medications? 3. I'm anxious about the EEG scheduled next week. Will this induce a seizure and affect me longer than a day? He told me to stop taking my medications a couple days before the EEG and so I'm scared what that will do to my moods. 4. If he does diagnose me with epilepsy, does that mean he will have to report it to the DMV and that my license will get automatically suspended at first? (I live in California). I'm scared what that means for my ability to go to work since I live so far away, especially if it's an automatic suspension that I won't have time to repeal. 5. I'm trying to get a new job and even have a job interview later in the week after my EEG. Is this diagnosis something I should be upfront about if I receive a job offer? I'm scared that my license will get suspended and that I won't be able to work because of it. I'm also scared of how the extra stress of transitioning to a new job will affect my health, along with all the adjustments to my medications. I've read mixed responses about telling a potential employer and have had similar experiences with my bipolar disorder. I currently have an accommodation plan at work due to my disorder, but my manager does not know what my diagnosis is because that's not required by the ADA standards. 6. Should I be changing any of my behavior? Should I be driving or going to work? I'm currently allowed to work from home as needed and I'm not sure if I should do that or if I should try to "act normal." I gave my boss a head's up that I'm going through additional medical issues, but I feel guilty for not coming in to work. Clearly I'm overwhelmed by all of this and it's not helping that I already have bipolar disorder and am in the process of weaning off of one of my medications (Wellbutrin - because it lowers the seizure threshold). I don't know what to do and I feel like talking with my partner or friends about it doesn't help as much because they can't really understand all of what I'm going through. Any input would be greatly appreciated. I don't know how to go through the next month until my next appointment. Thank you, S
