I live here in the Nashville area and yes, I am sure they will be able to make an accurate diagnosis at Vanderbilt, and my bet would be on TN. I saw a neuro there at Vandy by the name of Dr. Riebau. He is very pleasant and thorough, young enough to keep learning, and - I didn't ask the details, but -he apparently has some sort of neurological disorder himself and is in a wheel chair. I was unaware of this until my first visit, but I feel like he may be more focused on learning all the new treatments for our type of disorders.

Luckily, my episodes are very sporadic, so I do not see him on a regular basis.

Good Luck with your Mom - I know it hurts you to see her suffer so.

Best wishes,
Rhonda
