How much to tell neuro people?

So I have a symptoms list a mile long and wondering just how big little to tell neuro?I am very worried he will think im a mental patient cause noone should have tjat huge amount of symptoms but they are all neuroological seams and my help him work out whats wrong.

Waitning on tests currently but i have so much more i could tell him from childhood ,he aksed me what symptpoms i deal with now but blanketed and couldnt remembere those then.

eg. toe walking 20 odd years
bad spelling ,mind blanks thing(worries me a lot i'm a good spell daily)
horrifying memory when little
severe malnutrition till turned 12 resulting in encopresis
Bad heat spells-no clue correct name
feet tripping/clumsiness constantly

Do i need to tell him these things or can I just wait and see the test results? I dont have faith in medical ppl listening to me .

Opinions grately appreciate
thank you before hand

I see you've got two threads going with pretty much the same question. In order that those answering but mostly for you, it's a good idea to keep the same question in one place and start new threads only if you have a separate question.

You'll tie yourself in knots trying to keep up with the answers which this lovely group will certainly give you otherwise.

If you have posted a question and not had a reply, I can promise you someone will. We're a global bunch so sometimes it can take a while until folks have finished work, got up, got in etc etc.

You can always add a 'bump' new comment on your own posts if they've slipped down the list and you haven't heard what you're after.

Take a deep breathe sweetie and look at some of the replies you have so far.

Neurologists are "just the relevant facts ma'm" types. Keep the symptoms to recent. If you bring up things from childhood he probably dismiss you. They like to see things for themselves. I would wait for the tests.
