You have been to many specialists but I
will need to know what examinations were
completed. For example, did any of your
neurologists order an EEG and EMG to
confirm/exclude seizures (epilepsy) or
nerve damage to the leg? Did your
orthopedists take an X-ray image of your
feet and vertebral column? You can try to
ask a neurologist, orthopedist, and
possibly a psychiatrist to be in the same
place simultaneously to examine you
together.
