I have the same thing. Only when I go to bed! It is terrible. Had gone to my GP a couple of times. The second time, I had a meltdown Had so much trouble getting to sleep and if I happened to wake up during the night, that was it. I was up for the rest of the night. Se finally she thought about it and sent me for a CT scan. They saw that I had previously had a stroke. I had no idea. From there I was sent to the ENT DR and then to a neurologist. The ENT sent me for an MRI . Two months have gone by and I still have no heard from him. The neurologist sent her results to the dr and mentioned something about the pica is touching the cochelear nerve... I have no idea what this is all about. So I just continue to wait!!!!! So frustrating.

@dorajak there is no excuse for taking two months to reply. It is up to you to pursue the results of your MRI. You must be your own advocate for your health care and while 2 weeks is typical, two months means your results have been overlooked or they have your phone number wrong or something happened because you should be given the results. The old squeaky wheel getting the grease adage means you must continue to call your doctors for results, and an appointment to discuss the things that you don't understand. If you don't feel capable of doing this, is there a family member who can advocate for you?
