I give up on finding a Rheumatologist for myself, but found one for my son who is treating him for pain due to some kind of connective tissue problem.

I did get referred to another local Neurologist for arm pain. I'll take the anti-MAG and other previous test results, but I expect he'll just blow all that off like everyone else has so far. Guess I'm resigned to living with getting gradually worse. I don't have the energy or fortitude to keep looking for a doctor that knows about anti-MAG and/or is interested in investigating.

I hope you were able to get insurance to cover your treatments and that they have helped you feel better.
Hi! I live in the Chicago area and see a neurologist at Washington University in St. Louis. They treat Anti-mag. I have mostly sensory, no muscle. I have been seen 3 times. Mostly they check my balance and strength. Because I am not being affected yet in these area, I do not take anything. My feet hurt, but not bad enough for treatment. What does help when I can't sleep due to pain is lidocaine patch. I only use once every couple of weeks. Do not like ingested drugs, so no Lyrica for me. I was seen 6 months apart and now will go back in 9 months unless a change in balance or weakness etc. I swim and walk and do a lot of stairs. The doctors at Washington University Neuro-Science center are very knowledgable about Anti-Mag. They will not blow you off. Good luck,
