What was it about your hand movements that the doctor reacted to?

I totally get why you are nervous about being dismissed. Hoping the doctor you saw is communicating with the neuro, or maybe you can print out the notes.

It does tend to go better when you can say "My primary care doctor wanted me to see you..."!

My hands are still when not moving/held still in the air but they shake pretty aggressively when I try to move them, especially when trying to hold something or grab something. She watched me move my hands up and down. I also told her that I'd had numbness in my fingertip that has now turned to pain and it makes touching anything with that hand difficult. I've also been having some coordination problems where I miss things I'm trying to grab, that sort of stuff.

I am hoping so too! I asked if she wanted me to write down my symptoms so she could attach the file to the referral but she said she'd send my bloodwork and to keep the list for my meeting with the neuro. I think she said she's planning on writing down what I told her in the referral. I don't remember too well!
