Default I know how you feel.

I am sorry you had to go through that. I posted some time back about my long awaited appointment with the head neurologist for the most prestigious teaching hospital in my city. He told me all my symptoms (including the ones in my arms and hands) came from crossing my legs. He told me if I stopped they'd all go away. I was so disappointed because I had put so much hope into that appointment.

It took a year to get in to see this "specialist". I asked what he thought it was if not PN. He laughed and said "Well, I don't know but it was sure nice to meet you today", shook my hand and left the room.
