@hopeful33250 Thank you for the recommendation on a second opinion! Right now the most difficult symptoms are my numbness/tingling, because I don't know what is causing it and my neurologist also does not seem to have anymore ideas. But also my decreasing fine motor coordination and dexterity in both of my hands. I work in Physical Therapy, which is a very hands on field, so my decreasing ability to use my hands for long periods of time makes me worried for the future.

@chamiltonatc
It will be good to know the results of your tests. If the tests do not provide satisfactory answers and you come to an impasse, perhaps you might, as @hopeful33250 mentioned, want to ask your doctor to refer you to Mayo or even do a self referral, which can be done also. Yours may end up being hard case to diagnose so be open to traveling if necessary to get to doctors and teams able to analyze more complicated or mysterious problems. Best to you, Hank
