Due to the fact that there is no way to test for a<unk> , doctors diagnose patients through a process of elimination. Based on the symptoms a patient suffers from, physicians rule out other causes. This can be done through neurological examinations in order to rule out neurological disorders and stimulus response tests in order to check if the nervous system is functioning correctly. Other testing may include blood work, CT scans, and in some extreme cases, a lumbar puncture. Doctors also take into consideration the family history of a patient, as<unk> s are often genetic.
