leg pains/autoimmune disorder?

I had nerve conduction study done on both legs by a specialist neurologist which showed that I had severe Chronic Inflammatory Demylating Polynuropathy, CIDP. This report was given to another neurologist who dismissed it totally and said I was to take Epimil twice daily (2x 400gm) I do not like this drug's side affects and want to know why the CIDP report has been dismissed and told that my lower back arthritis is causing the problem.
Any suggestions. Mim 75

Hi.
I have been in this position myself when one says one thing, and the other says another.

My strongest advice to you , is to get the report of the first neuro, with the nerve conduction study showing CIDP, and then get a good second opinion,
Thats what i had to do, i hope you find the real answers, but if the nerve conduction study shows CIDP, then im sure this is the real answer, and maybe the second neuro dismissed it, as he can not be bothered to treat it properly.

I would dismiss the second neuro big time, and find a proper neuro who will treat this properly.
Good Luck
