i'm so sorry you're going thru so much right now.
you're more than welcome here even if you don't have a dx.
we understand and you can talk to anyone here openly.
i'm a nurse and still have drs that can be dismissive. if you can't measure it on a lab test or see it on a physical exam it must not be true kind of mentality.
and, women can get a lot of...it's all in your head or it's hormones. that's just a cop out when drs won't look further than their face for real dx's and answers.
now that i'm off my soapbox my advice would be to try coming off the med you think is giving you the most side effects. tell your dr so he can give you instructions on how to best do it. then see if you feel better.
i hope your new neuro will really listen to you and validate you. that's the sign of a good dr.
please don't give up. could your sister or your dh go with you to your appt?
sometimes when someone else supports you the dr will see you as more credible.
we're here for you. i hope you get to feeling better and will find the answers you need.
