I was diagnosed with B12d 6 months ago after numerous, unexplained neurological symptoms, full story in the intro thread, titled "Hi I need some advice."

A few weeks ago I saw a neurologist, he ordered a brain scan which came back normal, next Monday I am to have an MRI of my neck.

So far neither he or my regular doctor has shown any interest in finding out WHY I was/am B12d. I would certainly like to know. I haven't pushed the point, but the neuro doesn't even seem interested in my B12.

I'm self-employed and pay $4500 a year for health insurance and this is the level of care I get?
