Hello Buddycat and welcome. My advice is, to ask your gp to refer you to a neurologist. Is there some reason why he’s refused to do this? Would you like to share some of your symptoms. I was diagnosed with ms last year. There are lots of great people on here, always happy to offer support. :- Take care, 🙂

Hi, if you feel you have not been fully investigated, then go back to your GP and tell him/her you are still having problems you think may be more to ME/CFS.

I was mis-diagnosed and spent other years having my diagnosis switched back and forth.

It was hell for a long time.
