Thanks Chris! After about a year, TODAY I have an appointment with a new Neurologist. (My PCP had encouraged me to give my original one here in NC a little more time to build a relationship, but we couldn’t seem to communicate with each other well) Anyway, the new Neurologist is in the same medical system, so I hope there’s no cross-contamination in making a switch to one of his colleagues, but I am going in with a VERY POSITIVE attitude for a fresh partnership, and I have read good patient reviews about this one.
Thanks to you and others, I have a list of questions for him, that I’m going to be sure aren’t overwhelming, but at top of the diagnostic questions is reason to or not to do SFN skin biopsy to see if I could possibly have that. Under therapeutic questions will be for MFR recommendation. From the map you sent me, there are two therapists within a quarter mile of his office. I am happy to report that my physical therapist last week is very familiar and favorable about MFR and is going to get me her recommendation as well! I am so happy with what you and others have been doing to help navigate this journey. From diagnostics, to therapies, to vitamins, to nutrition, to lotions, to mental health strategies, and to exercises, there’s no price tag on what everyone here is doing to help us achieve maximum comfort and livelihood!
