Vanderbilt neurologists
Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone goes to Vanderbilt in Nashville Tn. My G.P. wants to send me there. He was the one who diagnosed me a year ago last Oct.
I have not seen a neuro yet due to financial difficulties. Looking back I can trace when I started having symptons. 2005. I had a very stressful job with
very long hours at the Atlanta Motor Speedway. It was the first time in my whole life that I COULD NOT do my job. I had to quit. I was a single mother from the time my kids were 2, 3, & 4, so I knew hard work.
When I could no longer work, I no longer had insurance....therefore it was extremely hard to go to the doctor regularly. Mostly it was by ambulance to the E.R. Always same complaint.....right eye shutting. Slurring, no motor skills. Legs fail. Trouble breathing, trouble swallowing. They diagnosed me with T.I.A.'s. It seemed to fit.
Anyway fast forward to now. I go in front of the disability judge next week for the second time. I pray this time I will get a favorable outcome.
If I do, and I get insurance, my question is this. I live about 4-5 hours from Nashville. I just wondered if it would be worth my trip? I am really anxious about neuro's. I have a tendenancy to SPEAK my mind at doctors offices.
They don't like it. I want a neuro who specializes in MG.....
Thanks for any input.....I've learned so much from here. I don't post often, but I read all the time.
