First I would like to say I know of several people that have these diseases (No not celebrities) personal people. First you should be seeing a neurologist. This Dr. can take a cat scan of your brain to see where the problem lays, a MRI that will show how you sleep and a blood test. After these tests He or she can discuss which types of medicines would work best with you, make sure your regular Dr. is in with this information and they contact each other about which medications to use. For example you could be allergic to something that would rule it out. Do not worry all of this is very helpful and will help keep seizures under control for a long time. try and get into a good sleeping habit and whatever medicine you might be on look at it for the better, and take them on a full stomach. All of this information should be helpful to you.

With a combination of relaxation techniques, diet control, holistic and medical dictations. I don't think there is one set treatment for any of the listed diseases. My friend suffers from MS and she does NOT take care of herself as she should. She is a young mother, and I see such a dim future for her if she does not take control of her life.
She just recently stopped smoking, a great stride in getting more healthy. But that is not enough.
Anyone suffering from these diseases needs to see a neurologist to start with.

they're all things that can be treated - as for the whole epilepsy and seizure things you just kind of have to learn to live with it (I know it sounds kind of harsh but that's almost word for word what my doctor told me when I started having my seizures) - the medications now a days can do wonders and you can go months and months without having a seizure but there's always that chance - but you also learn to know how you'll feel before you're going to have a seizure (i.e. having a horrible headache, seeing floaters, some people see "aura's") - basically you just realy learn to live with it all
