I started going through the same symptoms. This is going on 5 months and it has been a challenge. I can’t get any answers . I went to three ENT , two primary physician and still looking for answers. Now , I finally got an appointment to a neurologist . The first appointment which was in the Duke System is scheduled in December. We are taking above 7 months away and that is with a NP in our department. Then I went another Health Care System . I had to cross over to three Health Care Systems to get an earlier one. I finally scheduled the first at ECU Health in Greenville NC which is in August . I called the office to verify my appointment and they said it has been canceled. The receptionist told me the NP was going on vacation. I called back again and they finally rescheduled me back in August. I am dizzy , head fogged , and balance problems. Now both legs and feet are hurting. Also, my had to stop working because I can’t function right now. It has been so frustrating and stressful. I have a lot of anxiety. It seems like my life went away in five months.

So sorry to hear this. I am unable to work for the most part as well. Unfortunately, we have to advocate for ourselves a LOT in the healthcare system. I had to stamp my feet this week to get an earlier appointment. If you are in dire circumstances, you’ve every right to demand urgent care.
