I know it’s tempting to not bother with testing.
I have had more than my share last year. So many tests. I’m ok now, but testing causes anxiety and takes time. I’m 79.
I wasn’t familiar with Burrows so I googled it. It’s an impressive neurological institute! That’s a good option for you.

Ingegerd, thank you for sharing. I’m sorry you had to endure so many tests. But glad you are okay now. Did you go to the Mayo? Yes, Barrows is impressive but they function a bit differently than most places. You can get a second opinion for a flat fee of $100. I think you send them all your tests. Maybe you don’t actually have an on-site visit for that. You can get treatment there if it is one of the diseases they treat. All of this is creating lots of anxiety and I need to get on with it & just go with the flow! But if there is no cure for many of these diseases, I can’t help but to question my pursuit for answers. Gotta get some sleep now! Take care and rest well😴
