Default GP just referred me to a rheumatologist

This morning I had an appt with my wonderful GP. We reviewed the work that had recently been done at a local neurology clinic, which turned up nothing. The only thing it did find was an abnormal EMG.

Based on my primary symptom of major weakness in the legs (very hard to walk), he has asked me to see a rheumotologist who he works with closely.

The tingling comes and goes, as does the blurry vision. After a clear MRI of brain and cervical spine the neuro states in his report that MS has been ruled out.

I don't have any experience with rheumatology and don't know much about it. Have any of you ever seen one?
