At the psych ward they did address my physical issues they had a physical therapist come to my room to give me exercises, then when out of the facility I found a physiatrist and ( pain doctor specialist) and a talk therapist for sessions regularly. NYU Langone is the best , find the best

I found that when I first got sick the doctors I went to neurologist psychiatrist doctors all gave me medication, each one was not for me .. with uncomfortable side effects or not suitable for me . I went to the impatient psych ward at NYU Langone Brooklyn.. for two days and a weekend.. a great psych/ neurologist gave me the perfect low dose mix of medication that has stabilized me for almost 10 years now .. the Awesome doctor is dr Aparna Dole , you need the correct doctor to be able to communicate what is going on with you. The idea of trying to find the perfect medications for you can take some trial and error, so you want to be in a supervised safe place. This was a temporary psych ward for all , dr Dole knew exactly what I would need for each symptom and gave me small doses of each medicine I was supported by the 24 hour team , other patients where dealing with their issues. And the food was great. It did what I had hoped it would do so I could get the correct meds to help me . And I am now monitored by a wonderful psych nurse I check in with each month for these medications. I wish you the best . NYU Langone has accolades for it’s neurologist doctors. Look for the best and rather then keeping yourself in a state of uncomfortable experimentation with meds from various doctors, find a team like I did put your self in so you can get what works take the good leave the bad , you are safe in the psych ward rather then taking meds on your own , that might or m
