I can relate, small town, rural. Fortunately, Southern Vermont is trendy and the local hospital has an excellent neurologist. Can you be referred to a neurologist near you? Mine thought my issue was possibly Sjogren’s or autoimmune related as I have PBC which caused liver disease (which was only found out by a specialist in a large hospital 2 hours away...my local primary assumed I was an alcoholic!).

So. If you can try to see one. I’m not sure how I’ll be able to move forward with treatment and additional tests I need, but I can drive a few hours and get to a couple of good hospitals, as long as insurance covers it. So, don’t give up!

I'm sorry to hear that. Are you still unsure what's going on then?
I can, yes - do you think it would be better to see a neurologist instead of a rheumatologist? This week has been awful, pretty much had constant tingling in my legs, arms and hands. I'm having to force my eyelids to stay open and the muscle ache has been horrific. Hopefully our luck will turn around soon.
