I know where I can look to find MS Neuros, but does anyone have a personal reference? I live in East Norriton, PA and am willing to travel to center city or other suburbs.
I had my 1st appt. with new neuro since last one retired. My old one was not a specialist, but a great neuro and stayed on top of MS research.
New neuro is in same practice, but does not seem to be up to date. Nice, compassionate, but not sure right for MS.
Red flags:
1. relies on radiologist reports of MRI, doesn't look at actual images.
2. Told me that Tysabri affects immune cells, but only targeted. Would not leave me open to catching other infections, such as the respiratory infections I have had trouble with.
3. That vitamin D level fine. It is at bottom of normal range. Didn't seem aware that research indicates to seek higher levels.
I had planned to go multiple visits before making up my mind. I think from a personal point, I would be ok. Am I right to consider above as red flags? My head is spinning. did cog issues make me scree up what I thought I knew?
Thanks for the help.
