Hopefully, seeing the top Consultant next week - necessary to interpret my brain MRI, and to bring up other issues - will resolve this problem. You should not give up on seeking the right Dr to give you the correct treatment. I have been lucky, I have an excellent Pain Management Team and - until now - have not needed to go back to a Neuro.
The answers are out there.

Wow, thank you for your reply. I had no idea that neuros often have bad reputations among patients. I assumed that because neuros are supposedly so well-educated that they could be trusted above any other MD's. I was so shaken up by my appointment...I felt like the neuro was snarky to the point of being abusive.
I certainly hope your appointment next week brings answers, good answers, for you, Dave.
