I am furious.
Last July, I was diagnosed with Alzheimer's by my Neurologist. He did extensive testing.
In March, I had a really bad seizure and was rushed to the ER. The next week I had all of the signs of a stroke, back to the ER. Only this time, I was put in ICU.
My doctor decided to do an MRI. It was the longest MRI that I have ever had. He also reduced my epilepsy medicine. I was sleeping a lot, staggering and falling down.
He told me that he was going to send the results of the MRI to my Neurologist to give me the results.
At the beginning of May, I got the results of the MRI. He did not tell me, he just handed me the results. He was probably hoping that I would not read it.
I read it!! I have mild cognitive impairment of the brain, along with my epilepsy.
Mild cognitive impairment is a far cry from Alzheimer's Disease.
Did he misdiagnose me or did he lie to me? What do you think? Have you had problems with your Neurologist, like this, I hope not.
