My guess as to why you have not had any other tests other than day of is because the day of tests did not show any issues (bleeding).. you could ask for an MRI..

Can you ask him to put you on meds? Maybe something for headaches or something to help sleep? Something for anxiety?

Can you get another neurologist?

You need to make a list of all the odd things you have done, like the shower incident and have him look at it... you need to make a table of symptoms and then check off on a per day basis what you are feeling and seeing in yourself... have your wife do this as well.

Yes your neck could be the issue...

I agree with Hockey.. ask for a neuro-phyc exam

Stress will bring back all symptoms as well, at least that is what I am finding.

Hope this gets better soon... let us know what happens...
