Gary, I am pretty much in the same boat as you. I was diagnosed with TM July 2005. At that time, I had spinal taps and plasmapheresis. I stayed in the hospital for four months for rehabilitation. Since I've left the hospital, I have not seen a neurologist. I do not have a regular neurologist to go to. When I go to my primary care physician, I will ask her to refer me to one, although I don't know what good he'll be at this point. July 2 is my two year anniversary. The only doctors I see on a regular basis is, my primary care physician and my Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation doctor. I have a Baclofen pump and my rehab doctor maintains that. Any other complaints, I see my primary care physician. I had a post on this message board not to long ago about the need for a neurologist. I read that a lot of people go to them, but I haven't seen one in the past two years. I don't know if it's necessary or not.
