Ray,
I feel like you should always be prepared when you go to a doctor and writing down the questions you want to ask helps. I have peripheral sensorimotor polyneuropathy and my first neurologist, who I saw once did not even call me by name or introduce himself. After getting 12 follow up appointments canceled, I went to a new neurologist; I wrote 42 questions down in my notebook that I took to the appointment. The Doctor gave me a 1 hour and fifteen-minute appointment and answered 38 of my questions before I asked one. I saw her again last week after being diagnosed with CIDP and had another hour appointment. I have been disabled for 28 years and have been to many doctors. I have learned to speak up and tell them what I need to know as well as what I think I need. Good luck to you.
