Well hi all finally, getting places at last. Was told I was well basically mentalMental retardation Mental status tests. Anyone who has read my posts would understand the absolute despair I was going through. And I feel for people in that position now, reasonable SANE people been told by medical people. That they are insane, I had an EVP and ERG. The EVP showed a significant difference on small patterns between both eyes. But brings me to my question, The ERG Electroretinagram had a very low signal and my eye specialist says it the worse she’s ever seen. I have 20/20 vision in each eye. I’m wondering is this result strongly suggest MS as a cause of this test outcome.
Thanks for your imput, i have seen a conslutant psychiatrist. who gave me a clean bill of mental health. My neurologist wants me to visit another one, but i feel his treating me like a cash cow for his mates.
Anyhow i'll keep you informed and the best of luck in your own dx
Sorry you are going through this. Maybe take a deep breath try to set it to the side for the weekend and regroup for Monday.
take care, sending you hugs to lift your spirits.

Since *mental* is the possible dx, how about you ask for the referral to a psychiatrist for evaluation ---- when those results come back *sane* then you can revisit the problems that your symptoms are causing, without the mental question being in play.
there are a number of people here who have had to do this just to prove that their illnesses was very much physical and not mental.
keep looking for your answers, ok?
