Neurologist,  's  Response
I would definitely go see your neurologist again. You symptoms may be suggestive of an inflammatory disease - such as MS - that might have bee not seen on an initial MRI. A migraine would cause all your symptoms, but if you feel like your symptoms are getting worse and not getting better, I would definitely seek a professional opinion.
