Hello, @maylily

The neurologist will probably ask you to describe the symptoms you're experiencing, and may schedule you for some tests to learn what's causing the symptoms. I think the first test my neurologist did was a nerve conduction study, and the results immediately diagnosed peripheral neuropathy.

I hope you are satisfied with your first visit. Be sure to speak up. Don't let any doctor brush you off because of your age. Are you comfortable with researching things online? There are endless resources. I always go online when I start a new medication or when a doctor mentions something that I'd like to know more about.

I wish you well.

Jim
