摘要
This paper is based on Dr Morrison's presentation at the St Andrews Day Festival Symposium held at the Royal College of Physicians on 29 November 2013. In this case, as discussed at the Symposium, the patient has presented with 'tired all the time', one of the most common complaints seen by GPs and one which can be linked to a number of physical and psychological causes. Dr Morrison assesses whether Neurology is the most appropriate place for this patient.
