    Hey Rob; yes that was my first port of call and who ordered the MRI, CT and NCS. They have referred me back to my GP with no further follow-up.

    Hey Annie. The story of your journey has helped a great deal and it seems we have many parallels (they’ve just finished reviewing scans checking if I have had a stroke; I knew that I hadn’t). Also like you I believe my doc is drawing upon past trauma at the moment.

    I’m sat here here atm and it feels like my calf muscles are going to burst through the skin; they are so rigid and stiff.

     

    I have today written to my GP and Neuro and listed all of my current symptoms again and told them, as Troy suggested, to trust me and to trust that I know my body best. I’ve asked them to speak with one another and to explore young onset pd fully.

    Thanks again for reaching out; it has been a great help :))

     

    Cheers, Gary

    Thanks Troy

    I’m pretty confident that something physically isn’t right; I’ve been through a great deal of psychological trauma in the last 5 years but have also had great therapy which has made me very resilient.

    I’m due to speak with my doc again in about 10 days or so; I’ll take the lead and ask them, as you suggest, to trust me.

    Cheers, Gary
