nothing much as happened really, my eye pain went away for a couple of weeks and then returned, my neurologist thinks i have a-typical migraines, i am taking tregretol and nortriptyline, none of these help so every day im in pain. i dont know what else to do. i cant change my neurologist as in the uk we have a long waiting system and are allocated whichever neurologist becomes available. i went to him and said that iv heard of cases where a person has ON but it hasnt shown on the mri or eye test and he said that he's never heard of that happening so he's not willing to even consider ON. im really frustrated by it all and getting nowhere. he wants to do another mri but believes the results will be the same, he is also considering doing a nerve block in my neck, this worries me as i have no diagnosis so im not sure what im being treated for.

The nerve block would probably be to see if the pain goes away; as it sometimes will for migraines with that sort of treatment. Sounds like he's trying to rule out migraines through trying the treatment, and he also may very well be trying to get you out of pain the way he thinks is best .

Sorry that you have such a situation with the neuro. We have the same silly waiting system here in Canada...although we can choose our specialists (neuro). It just depends on how long one is willing to wait. It can be over 2 years to see one that specializes in a particular area within neurology like MS.
Can you be put on a waiting list for another neuro?

With love, Erika
