    Hi Genny

    I've only just seen your post, I already replied to your response on my post lol.

    Oh dear you are having problems. I really sympathise with you. 

    What medication are you on? 

    I would go back and see your Dr as I'm sure he will refer you to have an MRI scan. Get him to chase up your insurance company and he can stress how important it is to have this done. Better still see if you can change to a different insurance company. 

    I don't know how these things work for where you live as I live in the UK and we don't have this problem.

    Good luck and let us know how you get on.

    Hi Genny,

    Mine started the same way and I also found that some meds work better than others so ask your Doctor for different meds and higher dosage.
