Abstract
The frequency of active epilepsy among MS patients in Nordland was 3.2%, approximately 4.5 times higher than in the general Norwegian population. RRMS patients with active epilepsy had more likely converted to SPMS than patients without active epilepsy. With a high frequency of focal epilepsy, the study supports that focal MS brain pathology is the cause of the comorbid epilepsy.
