I agree, if you are uncomfortable with the diagnosis, you need to get another opinion!
Yep. I don't always listen to my own discomfort, even though it's usually my gut instinct telling me something is not right. I agree with LJ's advice.

I highly recommend LSU although it's a distance from you. They will start with all the testing from scratch and give you a complete diagnosis. It's doctors, specialists and students all working together to help Cobi.
