Is there a difference between seizuers and epilepys? My dr thinks I have had seizures on and off since little girl (now I am 32)

I have just been DX with parital complex seizures. When I was a little girl I do remeber hearing these weird sounds in my head and feeling like my mom was real far but she was right next to me and everything was moving fast. I would wake up with awet bed. It happended again a few times as a teen, then again in my twenties. Now with an "official" DX I am 32 and more confused now than ever. i have been in and out of the ER for years with the strangest DX. From Depression to Allergic reaction. To even put into a mental institue. I have had tingles in hands, feet, strange tastes like metal, numbness in hands, feet, face. trembling in right arm. bedwetting. I used to very smart and was back in to school for nursing, now I can not even talk right anymore. Memory is shot, and now severe explosive waterey diarrhea out of the blue. I feel like I am falling apart. I had an MRI of brain. Showed a small mengioma Dr said was nothing to worry about and had nothing to do woth seizures. OK now I am getting a 24 hour EEG and on Lamactral, Topamx, Synthroid, Colonpin and who knows what else they are going to add. If I do not get answers soon I g=feel like jsut throwing in the towel and giving up on DRs all together, I mean I have 3 kids 2 of which are under three years old and all these trips to the drs are just seeming like a BIG waste of time. Any feedback would be SO much appreciated
