I’ve had a lot of consultants and each of them are different, I even had one that was experimenting and put me on a medication that made my liver almost fail. It took them until I was 12 years old for them to diagnose me with FLE. That was after a weeks EEG. I think it’s hard when switching doctors because they all have different views and want to run there own tests. I haven’t seen my consultant in a year and a half because he talks rubbish. It’s hard but hopefully you’ll find one soon and you’ll get the diagnosis and treatment you need!
