Could this contribute to seizure activity?

Hello All,
Well, tomorrow the results are supposed to be in from Cleveland Clinic about
the MS. I am not nervous, just have been waiting for so long & would like to
get this over with. I have been walking everyday per Phil's advice & I have
more energy during the day now. Let me tell you, I have no problem getting to
sleep at night anymore because of the pain, as I am to beat! LOL. I went to
a healing mass here, a Catholic one, and it made me feel better mentally to
know there is someone bigger & stronger than me to share these illnesses with.
Not that I believe that I will be healed, just to know that someone else is
praying for me helps. I am even thinking of going off of the amitryptaline
because I already take Tegretol for the seizures and Zoloft to treat the PMS
(as my seizure activity occurs 98% during this period, no pun intended). This
week I have had a few bouts with the "rash" in patches. I was anticipating
some kind of flare up but did not feel any difference that I was aware of.
The thing is, I had 3 seizures today and am now wondering if the "rashes"
which is due to the TM, was a sort of flare up that contributed to the
seizures. I was wondering if anyone also has epilepsy and if the TM can cause
seizures for you? I will let all know about the results tomorrow, and again
thank you for your support, and sharing with me.
Keep positive and healthy,
Maria
