fyi...over yrs i had 2 bad discs. one cervical, one lumbar, both of which needed surgery. if i had con't with my chiro it wouldn't have been a good thing. and, as good as my massages were i eventually stopped them because while i felt better in the short term, i didn't in the long.

now i'm an RN so i'm predisposed to lean on conventional medical care. others i know are not. and, alternative medicine does have a lot to offer.

once you find a good neuro and pcp i'd stick with them to see if you all can get to the cause of your problems. keep a sx (symptom) journal with dates and sx's. that may help your reporting skills to your drs.

don't let drs brush over as "that's normal" when you know it's not for you.
you are your own best advicate.
