Default Lost and Need Referrals in Los Angeles

Hi All,

My once outgoing and energetic mom (mid 60s) has become extremely depressed and is experiencing migraines, tingling sensations in hands and feet, horrible heartburn, dizziness, changes in blood pressure, heat intolerance, touch sensitivity, swallowing/dry throat, salt intolerance, incontinence, insomnia, trouble focusing eyes, general pain throughout body, horrible anxiety, and extreme fatigue. We went to a neurologist and she suggested it could be fibromyalgia without even looking at bloodwork, ct scans, etc.

I'm not sure what this could be but googling has made me anxious it could be something along the lines of Parkinson's Plus, Multiple Sclerosis or Lou-Gehrig's Disease. I have two babies at home and I'm taking care of my mother who cannot prepare her own meals or drive any longer. I don't have the luxury of time to search for doctors and seek out multiple opinions.

I desperately need a referral to an amazing neurologist who can diagnose my mother's condition. I'm not sure what kind of neurologist I should be utilizing. Does anyone have any suggestions within the Los Angeles area?

Thanks to those who take the time to reply!
