Thank you, Darlene.

I saw the neurologist and did not click with him at all. He lacked empathy and seemed to make absolutely no effort to understand the symptoms I was explaining. He said he "won't do an EEG" as long as I am on "all the medications" - as if I prescribed myself medication, as if I am to blame for being on meds.

I explained to the MD that I am on meds because of the symptoms. He just shrugged. This, after seeing a psychiatrist a few days ago (the one who referred me to the neuro, and whom I feel is a very caring doctor)...a psychiatrist who kept telling me that she doesn't believe I am taking enough medication to treat my symptoms.

Ahhh...a big waste of my day and a 50-mile trip. I did message my psychiatrist and let her know that I found the neurologist very unhelpful.
