[|AI|]  Hi Tami, Thank you for posting your query. I agree with you that your diagnosis has not been established, as different doctors disagree. MS (multiple sclerosis) can be diagnosed on the basis of symptoms, MRI findings and CSF (spinal tap) analysis. EEG is not helpful in the diagnosis of MS. Increased electrical activity in EEG can also occur in about 5% of normal population. So this finding without any history of seizure is not significant, and no medications are needed for this purpose. Best wishes, Chat Doctor.
