There are good neuros and there are not-so-good neuros, and a few are really bad apples.

Have you asked your neuro about how many MS patients he has? Sometimes that can be an indication of how much experience he's had with MS.

There are neuros around who don't know much at all about MS.

This doctor is your employee, and if you don't agree with the recommendations or think you haven't been treated fairly, please don't hesitate to find a replacement.

You're the one in charge. The doctor can't force you to do anything you don't want to do.

I'd have doubts about being in a clinical trial too, I think.
