I took the day off school and drove 300 miles to see a neurologist today, in order to get my head examined. After a cursory five-minute review, the doctor said that he simply didn’t know what was wrong with me. It wasn’t that he doubted that my symptoms existed, and it wasn’t that didn’t think that anything at all was wrong — he just didn’t know, and he expressed no interest in finding out. He offered no referral, provided only the most slight suggestion that I see another doctor, and didn’t even consider an MRI or an EEG. There was no diagnosis, or suggested method of obtaining a diagnosis. It was very weird.
Obviously, I’m going to have to see another doctor.
