Not a matter of: scarring. The seizures can be from an other number of issues: new brain tumor ( meningioma), development of epilepsy, brain infection , etc. You will need a repeat MRI of your brain and another neurological consultation. Scar tissue, in and of itself is a sign of healing. Get examined again.
