Default Cleveland Clinic Visit

Hey everyone. So for all the people who were trying to help me out a few weeks ago and wanted to know how my appointment at cleveland clinic went ....here is the result. It was pretty much a waste of time.

He has decided he does not think I have MS which is good, he had bloodwork done to check heavy metals (including copper deficiency) and i will get those results in a few days.

He suggested maybe redoing my skin biopsy there at the clinic because the numbers were low (just not low enough to call it SFN) but I said that for now I didnt want to do that (just had it done 6 months ago so maybe after a little while longer).

So in the end he said what every doc has : he doesnt know what is causing the problems...

And he increased by gabapentin dose to 900 mg 3X per day (From 600 mg 3X per day) in hopes that this will help. I will let you all know results from heavy metal test when they come in.

Thank you all for your insight and advice
