I've no idea where you are but honestly, it sounds like you might want to think about being done with your family physician!! This is completely unacceptable, truly. One of the most valuable things I learned when I was first dxed was that my main physician is supposed to be my "team leader". And in fact, he became just that. Having seen a complete knucklehead initially, my internist made a few calls and I had an appointment with a neuro-op and MS specialist within a week. I know this is not the same situation everywhere in terms of access but my point is, I honestly believe you should EXPECT MORE.
