Hi Sally! My username is my first name spelled backwards...

No evoked potentials or LP, but brain and spine MRIs, including the scan sequences they do for MS. Didn't find any lesions. Various, and many, blood tests. I'll be asking the new doc whether any of the CMT genetic marker testing would be indicated. My neurologist didn't think so, but I later decided he used faulty reasoning.

Fortunately for me there are few people that require convincing, and I don't feel compelled to convince any that do. Partner is supportive, sisters are empathetic. Aside from my boss, co-workers don't know, friends variously know or don't know. But, yes, I'd just rather the pain went away and it wasn't an issue.
