Default Just got back from alledged specialist!!

I am not sure what to think. The neurologist didn't look at my other neurologists notes, my MRI's or my blood tests. He listened to me at length and looked only at my nerve testing only. He then did a very thorough examination and got reflex responses out of areas (my ankles) where my other doctor didn't. There was only one test that showed any possible damage on my right foot. It was a vibration test. He told me it was pretty insignificant. He had me walk on my heels, on my toes, bend and touch the ground, and did muscle testing. After all this he said my sensations are caused by crossing my legs and being thin and I needed to stop crossing them. He also said I had carpal tunnel in my hands but nothing major. He recommended a brace I could get for my wrist if I wanted to.

It seems over simplified to me. Also, it would be hard for him to know if my muscles are weaker as he has no frame of reference. Prior to all this my legs were very strong as I worked out and also danced ballet. And bending over to touch my toes is crazy easy for me as I am super flexible. So, I do not know what to think. If I drank this would be a good time to have a few.

Also, he said my twitches were benign fasciculations not PN.

Any thoughts? Please.
