While you are waiting...I'd get tested for B12 levels. Your symptoms are consistent with poor B12 in the body. This is easily and inexpensively fixed. However, the lab ranges reported may still be the OLD low ones, and so posting here your concentration in numbers and qualifiers (like pg/ml or nmol/L == the latter have to be converted to pg/ml)...would reveal if you need a supplement to raise yourself to norms.
Many drugs deplete B12...metformin for diabetes and all the acid blocking drugs for GERD and heartburn are the most common ones. So many people today (new estimates are 40% may be low)...have this problem and doctors remain clueless and don't think of it!

He also ordered an EEG.
After the EEG, told me that although the folks who read the results noted some abnormalities, it was because of my age (I'm 64!)"
Now have lots of shakiness, jelly legs, electrical shocks. See him again in August. Could this be late onset MS?
