I've had basic tests and they all come back normal my GP sends me to the neurologist they do more tests that's fine then my neurologist sends me back to the GP then the GP sends me back to the neurologist back and forth back and forth four times. Wasted my money and time

I have my neurological psych next Monday and can't wait for the pep talk - hope he's ready to explain why I'm in his office and what he plans to contribute to the recovery process.
I also had a blood test prescribed by my GP since it was my yearly check-up but it was a standard test rather than a targeted test to look for covid so it was useless - as with anything you have to tell them what to look for and pay accordingly. Mine was my yearly blood draw so my A1C was ok, red & white cell count ok , cholesterol ok .... but nothing on covid because we didn't ask. I understand that if you take a certain blood test within 6 weeks of contracting Covid they can confirm Long Covid - that does nothing for the long covid population that has been battling it for over 2 months.
