Embarking on this terrible journey [View all]

My husband went to a neurologist today. It took two months to get an appointment. 30 minutes later " There is something going on with him". Appointments were scheduled until the end of April 2025 to get a final diagnosis.
30 grand gone to scammers, having to transfer all of our money into a separate account, and all the little day to day issues.
Any advice appreciated. I will always treat him with respect because it is not his fault.

I am so sorry. Only advice I have is that you can't do it all yourself. Scrivener7 Aug 2024 #3

Do you trust the neurologist's and/or technician's diagnostics? Will your dear husband accept them? Backseat Driver Aug 2024 #6
