If you have seen him before, you still need a referral? Is there anyone at the office to give you a referral? Can you call your Ins for a referral on your own? Take this time to list ALL your symptoms and time frams from the beginning to the best you can recall. Call and get copies of EVERYTHING you can. Call some ueros offices and see if the specialize in auto immune disorders, specifically MS. Find a good one that seems to fit your needs. Don't go back to the one who has not given you answers!! Look over everything you have, do loads of research in the next week. ARM yourself with info and questions to ask... You can never ask to many questions or do to much research!

ETA all the dxs you have in your siggy could be explained by MS. Please don't give up on this. I always tell my patients BE YOUR OWN ADVOCATE. If you don't advocate for yourself, no one else will. You need to get to knowing and managing so you can LIVE!!!!!
