When to see a neurologist

Common reasons

  • Migraine and frequent headaches
  • Numbness, tingling or weakness
  • Dizziness and balance problems
  • Memory concerns
  • Seizures and sleep-related nerve conditions

Signs it may be time

  • Headaches are frequent or changing
  • You have numbness, tingling or weakness that keeps returning
  • Your primary care doctor referred you
  • A sudden severe headache, weakness on one side or trouble speaking needs emergency care, not an appointment

How to get the most from your neurologist visit

1

Before: what to bring

  • A list of everything you take, including supplements, with how often
  • Your insurance card and photo ID
  • Recent lab results or imaging reports, if another clinician ordered them
  • A headache or symptom diary: dates, how long, how strong, what helped
2

During: questions to ask

  • What type of headache or condition do you think this is?
  • What triggers should I look for?
  • Do I need imaging or other tests?
  • What should make me seek urgent care?
3

After: what to keep track of

  • Each headache or episode: start time, length, strength
  • Sleep, meals, screen time, stress and your cycle, if relevant
  • What you tried and whether it helped

After your visit

Keep the plan going between appointments

Neurology relies heavily on your own record. A migraine diary of how often, how long and what came before is what lets a neurologist see your triggers and judge whether a plan is working. Emerge Care, free to download on iPhone, is built for exactly that: tell it how you feel in your own words, get plain answers with the source behind every fact, and walk into your next neurologist appointment in District of Columbia with a one-page summary and your questions ready.

  • Log symptoms and side effects by talking
  • Answers that name their source
  • One-page visit summary PDF
  • Health records stay on your iPhone
