MRI has been ordered as to how long it will take for that to be scheduled is anyone's guess. You are so right; we know our own bodies and wish doctors would just listen to us more often. Brain scan was normal, so no neurologist is needed. Doctor did discuss with me ways in which I can possibly avoid having another one, losing weight which I am already doing, drinking more water which I already drink 6-8 glasses a day, exercise at least 30 minute a day which I have just signed up for chair yoga classes, and take aspirin which I have been doing for the last 10 years. Don't know what else I can do, as far as other exercise, I have bone on bone in my ankle preventing me from doing much walking. I will do everything I can to keep this from happening again.
