Has your friend been checked for Lyme Disease? Does she have a good primary doctor who will do some basic testing? There could be more than one thing going on here. Sometimes when doctors can't fit symptoms into a neat and tidy clinical diagnosis, they place inappropriate and unscientific labels on symptoms—that takes less of their time!

If she can find a good internist who will stick with her throughout the investigation stage, that will help tremendously. I hope she is keeping a journal of what the symptoms are, what day and time they occur, etc.

If any tests have been done, make sure that she gets her medical records. There are things some doctors don't tell patients.

Simply because an MRI is clear does not mean that all is well in the central nervous system. A good neurologist will conduct further tests.

I hope she will receive the help she deserves!
