It took me 2 years, 4 hospitals, and 8 different neurologists to finally find one that believed me and told me that yes, something is indeed wrong. Being told over and over that "nothing is wrong with you" when all tests come back normal while having all the symptoms I have been experiencing is needless to say frustrating. If doctors had said "I don't know what is wrong but I am going to find out" that would have been totally acceptable but telling someone NOTHING is wrong when they are sitting in front of you with out-of-the-blue speech & gait problems is not acceptable.
Honestly I thought of you and several others I know with similar stories while writing this. It’s terrible what it does to self confidence and even that internal instinct. I have a hard time trusting myself to decide if something is really wrong or not! I hate that.
