A member asked:
Can a neurologist be able to tell whether my random body pains from time to time are from withdrawals or not? how?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Drug withdrawal : Yes. Neurologists are expert physicians in solving medical puzzles. Medication withdrawal is caused by a medication or drug (e.g. Alcohol) that is abruptly discontinued or tapered too rapidly. In addition to a detailed history, the neurologist performs a thorough physical/neurological examination. Imaging and blood tests may be included to confirm or deduce the diagnosis.
