Hiya all..

So I’ve got a neurology appointment tomorrow and my anxieties are kicking off already.

This is my first neurology appointment in 7 years and any advice on what to expect would be much appreciated. 😁

I always found them to be an anti-climax,,

Stand up, balance on one leg, walk on the spot, grip my hand. etc.

Then ask you about symptoms and thats about it. I have seen about 4 or 5 over, two private three NHS and nothing special.

I was always more worried seeing a psychologist - just in case they said I was depressed ....

It should go well and nothing much to worry about.

Hiya sospan..

I’m not too worried just anxious (it can’t be helped) but thanks for the info, now I know what to expect 😁.

You do start to have self doubt - well i did.

Are they going to find something ? If they don't is it all in my head and I am imagining things. What if they do find something - how bad is it. And round and round it went.

After a while I used to get frustrated with them - forget about trying to diagnose something, just tell me how to improve !

Hopefully there’s nothing to find as I was given the all clear ( AVM has gone😁) but I do feel radio-surgery changed me especially with vision & speech.

I’ll just have to see how it goes.

Not what you're looking for?
