I would get tested at your new neurologist's office for B12 deficiency. Vegans can have serious deficiencies in B12 levels, since they don't eat animal foods. You should get the numerical result and see if it is below 400pg/ml. Labs today still report levels below that as "normal", which is dangerous.
Vegetarians also get low in zinc and methionine (a sulfur containing amino acid). The phytates in vegetables can complex zinc in the GI tract and make it unavailable for absorption.
Low methionine leads to low SAMe levels. SAMe is a methylation carrier for methyl groups to make neurotransmitters.
It might be useful to get the DNA testing for methylation as well.
If you have a MTHFR genetic error, the little B12 you are consuming may not get activated to methylcobalamin. Some of our posters here have had this test and found they had this problem.
Here is our B12 thread:
