[QUOTE=EnglishDave;1144973]Hi Mat52

If your Neuros are anything like the ones down here on the NHS I would suggest attaching written notes onto 6 inch nails and driving them into his skull with a large mallet. On my last appt I was saddled with a Registrar who was SO bad he thought he could contradict an MRI and a Consultant with 40 years experience - who ran 3 hours of comprehensive tests on me - with a 2 minute visual review.

I throw my hands up and dismiss them now, I would rather see any other Specialist. And this has been the case since 1997.

Despite this, I truly hope your experience is a positive one and your Neuro can reach conclusions which actually lead to effective treatment. I have followed your Posts, and you deserve a break.

Thanks Dave - if you've waded through my long posts I'm very grateful! My neuro is rather s serious man but he seems quite honourable. I don't think he knows that much about autoimmune diseases though. He's an expert on headaches so perhaps my more recent jaw/ mouth neuralgia may strike a chord. It's my rheumatologist I despair of. But your registrar sounds in a league of his own!
