Default When the www.lizajane.org site goes back up--

--I understand there've been some problems with the server there over the last week or so--you should peruse it closely; it is the most comprehensive databse of potential tests for neurological symptoms yet compiled.

It is designed not only to suggest tests to uncover conditions behind both central and peripheral nervous problems, but to track results over time in order to discern patterns.

I empathize with your desire to have your old life back--most of us have been through that--and its possible you may get it. but neurolgical symptoms have a tendency to be chronic, with adjustments necessary, and most of us can also vouch for the difficulty in getting diagnoses, as so many neurolgical symtpoms can be caused by multiple factors, leading to long and expensive investigations.

Te lizajane charts can also help you to suggest tests to physicians--its unfortunate, but many physicians get stuck in their own little testing/diagnostic patterns, and are not that good at thinking outside the box, needing to be (gently) prodded. (It's no stretch here to say that most of us have greater expertise in our conditoins than most doctors do--we're specifically motivated to keep up with the research and literature.)
