Let the neurologist decide if tests are needed, make sure the new doctor has access to your previous records as that can save lots of time and frustration. Keep a log of your symptoms if on and off.

Typically, your new neurologist will request prior medical records. You may require additional testing, including blood studies, if appropriate. Good luck with your evaluation.
