My neurologist has not been any help at all in trying to find a cause. He seems to have just called it idiopathic and then given up entirely. I am considering finding a new neurologist at this point!

There comes a point where there aren't any more tests that they can perform if the results are always the same. I ended up seeing 3 neurologists and 2 neurosurgeons over the course of about a dozen years before receiving my diagnosis.
It wouldn't hurt to get a second opinion, but more than likely you'll have to go through the same tests again.
