I guess I'm in such a fog, but my main question is...can neuropathy be felt as only pain and fatigue, weakness,, with out the tinglies, numbess, etc? I have the sort of numby tingly stuff in feet....but my arms just plain fatige and weakness.....wondering if I should try straight for a specialist or see Dr. W. my current neuro one more time...I don't like the hospitals he works at, I may switch to next county to go to the one I like. Same distance. I live in the Dc metro area near Annapolis.....if anyone knows anyone. I have to go look at my "referral" book anyway. I am just confused if I should see neuro or rheumy or both. To tell truth this rheumy has done all the basic rheumy type bloodwork so I think he will just say its fibro....but its way different and intense...he did refer me to a physiatrist for my leg, I chose the spine specialist cause seemed safer...getting a needle poked in there I wanted to be safe....this doc was an anesthesiologist. Yet the other one seemed good from his online description. OH I pray I get the SSDI so I can keep going to these docs. My grandpa did have ALS but non of my sx point that way thank God,. any way I am rambling I need to do some imp paperwork. Bye and thanks for now. That chart is a good idea. I have folders galore....I like to be organized...
