Hi Carol! Sounds to me like you are having a residual! If you are not happy with that neuro, I think I would see about getting a new one. But it’s like starting over with them. Getting tested and retested. But then sometimes a new Neuro sees something the other Neuro didn’t! I certainly would see someone different!
I too when I get sick or have surgeries get petrified. Have seen one surgery go well and then yet another surgery cause a major attack on my nervous system. Seen me get sick with a cold and boom! Another attack!
This coming Monday will be two weeks of having 3 teeth pulled and then last week another 3 teeth and have 4 more at the top to pulled. Last night I started getting burning in my feet and felt drained. And I was doing so good too! Now I am scared to get the 4 other teeth pulled. I hate to admit it but I do become a big chicken when I get these attacks. It scares me!
Our immune systems are different from the average normal person and sometimes when we get sick we get exerbations just like a person with MS does. But they call them residuals and depending what you are diagnosed they call them exerbations. When you get that way, your body is telling you to rest and don’t overpush on anything. In my case it requires rest. Lots of rest until you start feeling better. Then you slowly try to gain strength again. Hope this helps and I wish you my best! Hugs

Hi Carol! What doses of Vitamin C did you take? Were they over the counter pill forms and did it help? Also what it an adrenal extract and is that too over the counter? Did that help too! The reason asking about the vitamin c is I know I don’t get enough of that and might just try it out and talk to my doctor about it! Hate you had to see a second attack. That would have been very scary! Hugs

Hi Carol! So sorry your first evaluation did not go so well. They gave me physical therapy right after my back got injured and it did me more harm than good back then. Then I went back to physical therapy and they were doing the same things I had before and already knew what to do and decided to do it alone at home. I guess it depends on what you have going on too for what they need to do in physical therapy. It was making me sicker too! That was my problem. Not being able to do it because of it making me sicker! Now that I am feeling better, maybe I will get lucky this time and get myself physically better!
Maybe next week will be better for you! Good luck!
