    Is it a neurologist?, and if so do I have to go through my GP to get seen?

    Talk to your gp, not people on an internet forum.

    You might need a neurologist or a neurosurgeon or a neurophysiologist or a visit to radiology first for a scan or none of the above !
    In all seriousness this must start with and go through your G.P.
    Best of luck with it.

    Thank you Nutley for answering my question, I know I have to go through my GP first for anything, just wanted to know, a neurophysiologist as been suggested to me already.

    Cheers dude.

    Reasonable question. GPs can be uninformed, biased, expensive. Why not try answering question asked rather than telling him to ask someone else. As a public servant I am sick of this pass the buck mentality.

    op, question is too vague to answer correctly, plus people on this forum cant speculate as to what is wrong with you, which theyd kinds need to do in order to answer your question. in any event, you'll need a gp referral to see a consultant so your best bet is to speak to your gp.
