Epilepsy and Multiple Sclerosis

Tue, 11/23/2004 - 12:00

I am 37 years old and have been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis sinc 2001. I have been having seizure off and on for over a decade. I was recently told that I have two type of seizures, epileptic and non-epileptic. The later are specifically related to the scaring on my brain caused by the MS. I am looking to more information about this combination or either situation.

I am currently a college freshman. Currently I am homebound, due to the stress of the seizures on my body and on the staff at the college. The seizures are beginning to take their toll on my partner and family as well.

 

Thanks

Jessica
