What little info i can gather is that all the sensory info leads up to the parietal lobe or temporal lobe damage, either by disease,drugs or injury. i tried to explain this happened all suddenly, if it was genetic, or mental, i shouldve have symptoms for like years, which i do not have. Before i loss my sensations to smell and internal organs. i had very acute sense of smell, better than most people. Besides i do not have my medical records, and my vit d is low, but i dont know how low. She was very resistant to doing any more blood tests, she only did cbc and b12, which i dont think will show anything useful, i did ask her to do all my deficiency but she completely ignored it. Im going to ask for copies of my medical records/test results, tommorow when i go. I will not intend to stay any longer in the visit, only to ask to be tested for deficiencies and for lyme disease, since im going to see a specialist later anyways. If all they do is give me the run around, im going to have to switch to anthem blue partnership plan(welfare, Medi-cal in California) for other options, i have read horror stories about Anthem blue insurance, where they drop people out of network, without notification.
