Welcome, HelloEverybody!

It's too bad that your doctor has dismissed your symptoms. Although I have no medical training, I think you should have been referred to a neurologist for a workup.

Weakness on one side can be a sign of many different conditions. It is real, not imaginary, and definitely not "attitude."

Could you find a different primary care doctor and clearly explain your symptoms as you did here? And ask for a referral to a neurologist?

I'm sorry you've had to wait a while for a reply here.
