how to be taken seriously
Posted: Sun Mar 09, 2014 1:37 pm
I am convinced I have some sort of neurological disorder but getting doctors to do something for me has been
like pulling teeth .
This is going on for 20 years now . I have tried alternative therapies but not much has worked although I haven't
really stuck to any treatment plan for very long though . Usually after awhile the therapy stops working or
makes me feel worse ... no pain no gain ?
A few years ago I barely convinced an MD to send me for an MRI but he refused to send me to neurologist .
I guess I look too normal in my outward appearance but I feel awful .
The MRI showed nothing . If the MRI shows nothing , is that conclusive evidence that it is not MS ?
I've had this so long ; should I be dead by now or much worse ? Maybe the therapies I've been doing
have prevented from getting worse , i don't know .
My symptoms : diminished sense of smell , a feeling of pressure in my head , music sounds like noise to me , fatigue although the fatigue has been
helped by alternative therapies , lack of concentration ( can't read a book end to end and I get no pleasure from doing so ) , anti-social . I've tried anti-depressants. They don't work . It is not depression !
How to get the doctors to do something ? Right now mostly I just need a diagnosis because I want to go back to work and
I have to have an answer as to why I haven't been working last few years .
