Hi everyone. I can not find any doctors, neurologists, neurosurgeons, psychiatrists, etc. in my local area that can help me... they tried but I don't seem to be responding to or am able to tolerate the medications. I am literally being told by all the local doctors I have gone to: "I have no idea how to help you". I am willing to travel, I need my life back... has anyone seen a doctor who is familiar with TN that has truly helped them? I am looking for recommendations! Thank you!!! ---

Are you going to Jefferson by any chance? I have heard real good things about them, was going to look into a neurologist there for my long term care, but I cant stand going into the city and found one closer to home. I cant find anyone in Delaware who even has the slightest clue about TN so I have to go out of state for care. Wendy
