I have been terribly suffering from vertigo and after waiting for weeks I was eagerly going to my appointment with the neurologist.
Then all he did was to knock on my knees and toes. He asked me to follow the torch with my eyes and some other simple tests while I was laying down and that was it. He concluded: "From a neurological perspective I can't see anything wrong with you"
I told him that I did some tests at home which I found on the internet and it seems my whole balance system is not working.
He didn't try to diagnose my vertigo but he did give me medicine which is supposed to be a last resort. It's a calcium channel blocker and I have to say that it helps with my migraines and lowers my tinnitus volume.
So what other tests could he do? I am thinking of requesting an EEG.
