I have found that my Neurologist is just as knowledgeable
and helpful . It took my too many years to find the right dr. so I won't tell you. Don't stop. It isn't dr. shopping when you don't have but one Rheum. at a time. It was my ex. they are a weird little bunch with a lot of weird little quirks and you have to find the one that will ask the quest.s and listen to the answers or you will not make any progress on your path to pain free days and that my new friend is what I believe we are all after. Sending a sky full of hugs and rays of sunshine your way, Ann in icy Tn.
