Hi Melodie,

I'm really glad to hear that you are going to get properly tested for everything, but sorry to hear that your doctor is giving you thr psych line. My neuro has not said this directly to me (yet), but when I last contacted him when it felt like I was walking on a marble and my feet would fill with pins and needles after walking, he told me that given my negative spinal mri and spinal tap that his hunch was that my problem wasn't neurological. Which leaves.... psychological?! I go back in a week, and my personal plan is to VOLUNTEER to see a psych doctor to rule out this possibility. I figure what is there to lose? Either anxiety/depression gets ruled out completely or it gets ruled in as a possibility and I get the chance to treat/improve my physical symptoms that way. Maybe if your insurance will cover it you could try this tact too?

lots of (((hugs)))). Even if your doc isn't the greatest, it's good to know that you are getting tested now for everything.

Chloe
