Seizure monitoring test?

I started having seizures about 3 months ago.It's believed to be a rare symptom of multiple sclorosis.(Diagnosed in Nov.'05) How does it measure brain activity?I know these electrods are put all over your head and they tape you the whole time. Is there a web sight where I can read up on this? Any help will be appreciated.Thank-you♥ Also anyone with M.S. that can tell me a little about your symptoms would be great.

    There are lots of Multiple Sclerosis websites, blogs, and chat groups. Also, you can go to the Multiple Sclerosis Society's Website for stories and symptoms.

    The tests you are going to have can been found described on scholarly websites such as MDConsult, Webmd, etc...

    Basically ( for a layman's point of view ) The electrodes pick up the brain's electrical activity.

    If there is abnormal electrical currents and brain waves, then they are recorded and read by the neurologist... that they can be figured out and medicated.

    How do they read the waves? It is like physics... The frequencies of the electrical currents cause different waves.. just like when you sleep your brain still produces waves.

    Alpha

    Beta

    Delta

    and Kspindles

    It's all just gobbly **** for physics, and electric currents....
