I am so glad I decided to post to this forum.
I want to tell you that I do keep a symptom journal and I have excellent health insurance (My husband is active duty military.)
I have also had blood tests to rule out vitamin deficiencies and anti-phospholipid antibodies. The retinal specialist I saw today told me that my visual problems are not due to issues within my eye, but are likely due to problems behind my eyeball.
I also want to tell you that I think I need to be more proactive.
I plan to call my primary care doc tomorrow to ask if he can intervene--help to expedite my neuro work-up.
Thanks so much!

Bravo Susie!!!
You're on the right track to find answers. Keep at it. Ask you doc(s) to do what they can to speed the process along i.e. finding a suitable doc and then for them to keep in touch with you during the process.
I wish you all the best and good luck and please don't forget ... we're here for/with support!!
Cheers!
Niko
