Get your family dr to send you to another neurologist and ask to be referred to TO Western to neurosurgeon. You have to keep at it and force the issue so you get the review you need - it is ridiculous to just fob you off like that to pain clinic.

That's great advice, I'm hoping my family doctor will be open to that. I really want support from Toronto Western and grateful Mayo clinic has this forum. I called the Mayo rep and she was really helpful too. I'm just not able to explore support due to my own financial situation at this time. I agree it's been a tough and I'm very tired. I've been advocating strongly and hope I can get a door to open to get a second opinion, especially with the weird tremors I have, hoping a doctor can assist with options.
