Hi @bosworth and welcome to Connect. You may have noticed I moved your discussion into the existing thread on small vessel ischemic disease so that you can connect with others who have experienced this disease. Simply click VIEW AND REPLY in your email notification and it will bring you to your post.

That must be frustrating to have those symptoms and have to wait two-three months before you can get in with a neurologist.

I wanted to introduce you to fellow connect members @caregiver49 and @jodiis1 as they have experience with this disease and may be able to offer you support as you learn more about this disease.

In addition, here is a link from Mayo Clinic with more information on this disease: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/small-vessel-disease/symptoms-causes/syc-20352117

In the meantime @bosworth, did you doctors give you any guidance as to how to handle this disease before you see a neurologist?

I have not seen my doctor since the MRI. She is generating a referral for a neurologist at Med Star Health in Northern Virginia. I only know what I have read online.
