Neurologist online, with your MRI report and headache diary
For headaches, dizzy spells or tingling
You choose a neurologist by profile and price.
The app is free to download.
What a neurologist can look at online
A report, a diary or a short video can be read from wherever you are.
Online, in the app
- A written MRI or CT report, and what its wording means in light of your symptoms
- Headaches or migraines that keep coming back, with a diary of when and how long
- Dizzy spells, or tingling or numbness in the hands or feet, over weeks
- Back or neck pain that runs into an arm or a leg, with the spine MRI report
- A tremor or an unsteady walk, filmed in a short video
- A second opinion before spine surgery or a long-term treatment
In person, at the clinic
- The neurological examination: reflexes, strength, feeling and balance
- An EEG, nerve tests or a new scan
- Prescriptions and referrals: the app issues neither
- Anything the neurologist asks to see in person
Stroke signs and other reasons to call 112
x.doctor is not for emergencies. If you or someone near you has any of these, call 112 straight away instead of writing:
- Sudden, even if it passes: a face drooping on one side, a weak or numb arm or leg, slurred or muddled speech
- Sudden loss of sight, double vision, or a sudden loss of balance
- A sudden, very severe headache, the worst you have ever had
- A headache with fever and a stiff neck
- A first seizure, or a seizure that lasts more than five minutes
- A head injury followed by vomiting, drowsiness or confusion
- Back pain with numbness between the legs, or loss of bladder or bowel control
With stroke signs, note the time they began and say it on the call. 112 works in Moldova and across the EU; elsewhere, call the local emergency number.
What to send the neurologist
In neurology your account matters as much as the scan.
-
The written MRI or CT report
The description and the conclusion, plus any earlier report, so changes can be compared.
-
A headache diary
A few weeks of entries say more than one bad day.
-
A video of what comes and goes
Film a tremor, a twitch or an unsteady walk while it happens, holding the phone still.
-
What you take, and how often
A photo of the boxes, painkillers included, and on how many days a month you take them.
-
How it started, in your own words
When it began, what came first, and what makes it better or worse.
-
The surgeon’s plan for your spine
The letter or note that proposes the operation, next to the spine MRI report it is based on.
The app does not take the image files from an MRI or CT disc: send the written report, or photos of its pages. Videos can be up to five minutes long.
An MRI report and a diary, in one chat
Each note names the step.
-
You send the MRI report
Hello. My headaches have come more often since September, so I had a brain MRI. The report says “a few nonspecific white matter foci” and it frightens me. mri-report.pdf -
The neurologist asks
Thank you, I have read the report, and I can see why that phrase worried you. Is the pain on one side or all over? How often do you take painkillers? -
You answer and add the diary
Mostly on the right. Painkillers on most days lately. Here is my diary. headache-diary.jpg -
A video call is offered
That helps a lot. Let’s go through the report and the diary together on a video call. -
You talk on video

You get it in writing
Here is what we discussed, in writing: what the report’s wording means in light of your diary, what to keep noting, and when to be seen in person.

Questions about a neurologist online
Can a neurologist online give a second opinion on my MRI report?
Yes: a neurologist reads the written MRI or CT report you send and says what they make of it.
Can I send the MRI images from the disc?
No: the app does not take image files from an MRI or CT disc, so send the written report or photos of its pages.
Can I ask a neurologist about a headache?
Yes: you can ask a neurologist online about headaches or migraines from your own account of them.
Can the neurologist prescribe medicine or send me for an MRI?
No: the app issues no prescriptions, sick notes or referrals.
Should I get a second opinion before spine surgery?
A second opinion before planned spine surgery is a reasonable step, and whether to get one is your choice.
Which symptoms mean I should call 112 instead?
Call 112 instead of writing for a sudden stroke sign, a first or long seizure, or back pain with loss of bladder or bowel control.
Can I ask about a parent’s symptoms from abroad?
Yes: with your parent’s agreement you can ask about their symptoms from your own account, and someone near them calls 112 if stroke signs appear.
How much does a neurologist online cost?
Each neurologist sets their own prices in euros, and the full price shows on the profile before you pay.
When another specialist fits better
-
Family doctor online
When you are not sure the problem is neurological, a family doctor is a good first person to ask.
-
Psychiatrist online
When poor sleep, low mood or anxiety come with the headaches, a psychiatrist is the medical doctor to ask about those.
