Guest guest Posted November 1, 2002 Report Share Posted November 1, 2002 I was wondering if you could give me the name of the neurologist you are seeing and the hospital he works at. When early this year the neurologist at the Maastricht University hospital had concluded that based on the symptoms my father had then (low BP, swaying) he did not have MSA, he had also said that no further tests were needed. Now, however, with his current symptoms, we think he should be seeing a neurologist again. We will get the results from the tests the Internist (Dutch word, is that the same in English?) ordered Nov. 7th, and based on that maybe he will already be referred back to a neurologist, but the fact is that there is no neurologist at that hospital with any experience whatsoever with MSA, and seeing the initial reaction of the one my father did see, we were thiking a second opinion might be needed. So we wondered where in The Netherlands we would be able to find a neurologist with some experience with MSA, and that's when I thought of you. Apart from that I just wanted to wish you all the best. I had replied to your e-mail earlier (update on a dutch girl) but it turns out I've been happily sending mail from an account not subscribed to the list. Doh. Anyway, just wanted to let you know you're both in my thoughts and I wish you well. Marcel Abraas Rotterdam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
