Call around and find a neurologist who will/can perform the test. You will need a neurologist who takes your insurance when you begin treatment. I don't know where you are located; but I will tell you that you can have your treatment at home should they order Immune Globulin. When you get your test results and your neurologist is ready to begin treatment, you can find a specialty pharmacy in your area.

You will need a CT of your chest.

Also, if you have trouble finding someone who can test you then call your insurance company and see if they can give you a referral. Also, you can file for a review with a third party administrator. It will be via fax and your PCP will need to apply in your behalf. Your PCP can order the test, btw. SNFEMG
