Wanted to let you know I got my Christmas Miricle! In a very unexpected place.
I knew I needed to get a LLMD but was afraid of the medical cost. I have insurance and called my insurance co. which they told me they may or may not pay for certain procedures.
So that didnt help at all! Of course.
It just so happened I was talking to my mother in law on the phone and my nephew the new docotor (about 4 yrs)was there. He had been living in philly, recently moved home.
She, my mother in law had told him a little about me and he asked to speek with me. We got to talking and he asked how much ax I was given. I told him waiting to hear "oh thats enough" and instead heard "What thats not near enough", I was so excited it was 9 at night I asked him how long he would be there? and He said for as long as it takes!!!!!!
I went staight there. We just got new blood work done, havent got all the results back yet but he wanted to see were my levels are at to determine what ax to put me on so we can get maximum results.
He's leaning more away from doxy due to me already being on it and it may not kill everything.
We spoke about dual infections and he also went that rout in my blood work.
So yeah~!!!
He really seems to know what he's doing at least more than my regular doc and the duck I had been seeing.
Just wanted to share my miricle with all of you it's not over but I'm getting closer to an end.
Any suggestions on making sure we do all needed?
Thanks Beth

Tell him about ILADS ... and tell him to open a practice ... he'll have patients flying in from all over the world in no time. Posted by webmeg (Member # 13647) on :
