Re: Would you get a lumbar puncture?

Do you know if it's painful/risky to do? The neurologist says its no big deal (he probably does them a lot though) and mri's have come back showing it to look clean from the imaging.

While I agree doctors are misinformed about parasites and some are even in complete denial,cI think the neurologist in my case would rather see me get better then going back to him over time, he has a lot of patients and is sometimes booked for weeks or months. He also has been pretty open about ordering tests the thing is with this stuff it seems like testing is not that reliable. It is weird that so many tests can come back clear even with stuff there whether mri's, ct scans, ultrasounds, etc.
