On a side note...saw yet another Neuro today, this time at Mass General, it was a waste of time...
Did neuro exam again, said everything was normal, except he noted there may be some slight weakness in my big toes? no one ever mentioned that before, also mentioned had slightly high arches in my feet and asked if I was clumsy or non-athletic when I was younger... I said no, as I played soccer and basketball, all as a youth and throughout highschool..
Reviewed the tilt and brushed through some other stuff, said I'd had a good workup, he said slim possibility of neuropathy, because although the bipsy shows some reduced fibers at the thigh, most all people would present with sme sort of pain, numbness, etc... but did not rule it out, said I may have what appears to be strictly autonomic neuropathy, with no sensory or motor involvement, just autonomic, and within the autonomic the only abnormality was in regards to the tilt test, other systems were spared.
Doesnt really think the GI stuff is related, thinks there is two seperate issues going on. Didn't order any more testing or provide any more insight, treatment, etc, just sent me on my way....useless, said to give him a call back if I notice my sis or mom have high arches.
Off to get an EEG done right now...they said it'll take 3 hrs. should be fun!
