HELP needed - MS? Seizures? Epileptic?

Dear Dr. Joshua:
I desperately need your assistance -Here are my labs/MRI's - I go to Dr's and no one has SPECIFICALLY said what is going on - Please....if you would - shed some light on the possibilities/probability. Thank you so very much in advance.

Hi, I'm a 44 yr. old female. I went to the Dr. in 2002 due to multiple
cold sore outbreaks on lips, on top of nose and in nose. Right leg had
severe pain like lightening striking. Chalked up to lawn mowing accident
in 95. I have 3.5 years worth of blood work.

MRI's
6/03: A single focal area of increased signal is noted w/in the right cerebral hemisphere in the centrum semiovale, a nonspecific finding. IMPRESSION: No definitive evidence of a demyelinating process.

Cerivical Spine: There are no findings suggestive of a demyelinating process
US Abdominal Worksheet: Slightly hyperechoic liver in Left Lobe

Alkaline Phos. - + bonescan - neg MRI - neg

8/04: On T2 weighted and FLAIR images, are multiple small focal areas of increased signal intensity involving the deep cerebral white matter bilaterally from teh frontal to the occipital lobes. Many of the foci are quite small and are more numerous on the right than on the left, and most of the foci are in subcortical distributions.

12/05: On T2 weighted and FLAIR images, there are multiple small focal areas of increased signal intensity involving cerebral white matter bilaterally from the frontal to the occipital lobes. Most of the white matter foci are in subcortical distributions.

6/06: On T2 weighted and FLAIR images, there are multiple small focal areas of increased signal intensity involving cerebral white matter bilaterally from the frontal to the occipital lobes. Most of the white matter foci are in subcortical distributions

EEG (48 hrs) 7/18/06-7/20/06: Posterior dominant rhythm in the 9-11 Hz alpha range and 20-40 microvolt amplitude range seen in the occipital leads symmetrically during restful wakefulness. Beta activity in 15-20 Hz and less than 20 microvolt amplitude seen in frontal central regions intermittently and symmetrically. Occasional bi-temperal slowing in the 3-5 Hz range and 20-40 micro. associated with abnormal events - no definite epileptiform activity recorded. No seizures recorded.

Impression: Mildly abnormal 48-hr ambulatory EEG due to intermittent bi-temporal slowing. This may be due to an underlying structural abnormality, which may predispose patient to epileptiform activity. Patient had several non-epileptiform events recorded.

8/1/06 Neuro visit Impression: Findings, signs and symptoms most consistent with underlying difficulty with episodes of transient myoclonic jerks. These are not associated with underlying seizure activity as seen by her 48-hr. EEG.

Ok...PLEASE...........................Help - everything seems to not jive and I'm totally confused.
Thank you!
