Thumbs up Wow!

Erin,
You do have a GREAT ONE! I was thinking maybe he has a little crush on you until you mentioned he treats all his patients that way!

Tell him I think he should travel the country putting on clinics for how a doctor should act with his patients. If we could clone him, I'm sure a lot of us would be in much better shape cuz we wouldn't have near as much stress in our lives .

Ask your potential neuro how many patients he/she has with MG. Don't EVER let them trivialize your symptoms - ever! Make sure they LISTEN to you and ask you how YOU feel...........write down your symptoms and make he/she reads them...............Do not let them rush you - they work for YOU!

I love my neuro! He is one in a million! I would totally try to date him if I wasn;t already happily married........When I woke fom my surgery he was holding my hand and asking me how I felt..........I am not the only one he treats like that - he treats all of his patients that way - again, one in a million!

Do you trust and respect your GP? He/she should be able to recommmend a great neuro for you!

Good luck!
Erin
