Yea I have had it with doctors myself. My primary care physician does not give 2 cents about my Peripheral Neuropathy and my Radial Neuropathy. I have seen about 6 Neurologists and all they want to do is re-evaluate me even though I have test results from an EMG test. They do not care what caused the condition only that I have the condition. When I ask for some sort of pain medication, they look at me like I'm a drug addict. My primary physician tells me that the neurologist has to prescribe it and the neurologist tells me that my primary care physician should prescribe it. I feel like I'm just getting shuffled around from one doctor to another and not making any headway.

My only suggestion is to see another neurologist. I hope you get better results than I have. Like someone mentioned here...my new insurance does not require a referral but in my experience the specialist does.
