I wasn't able to find what was said on the Dr. Oz show.
The hair went up on the back of my neck as the show reminded me of how many doctor's I saw that just said learn to live with it. It is just stress.
And did not have a clue as to how debilitating my condition is/was.

kam,
i tape dr. oz daily; watch late at night.
surprised to see him on there too; NOT long for him and that would be what LYME would be IF he ever had that subject.
is this the same show that also had the G location for women? if yes, did they censor out 2-3 times on there leaving a snowy photo?? my tape went that way....
he has some very interesting, well done topics.

Does anyone have any mailing addresses for Dr. OZ, to where we all could write to him and tell him to wake up?????? We have got to get ourselves a celebrity, someone with a HUGE mouth to start speaking......GOD PLEASE... i'm about to spend every dime I have.. i can't take this anymore....we need some recognition from someone who will take this to the mass media..

Betty, I did not watch the rest of the show after the CFS part.
Me and the G spot are not even on my radar right now.
Smiley, I sent an email by clicking on ask Dr. Oz.
I also have seen a lot of improvement since coming down with this in just the past few years.
I watched Susan Summer (sp?) on Larry King this week also. She talked about cancer and her new book.
Cancer victims are going through what we go through in a way.
One doc on the show would say one thing and another doc would have almost an opposite view point.
Sound familiar!
I recall hearing Christopher Reeves talk about battling the insurance companies, the politics and having trouble getting the doctor's to all sit down together and come up with possible solutions.
I think the best bet is to come up with a way to raise funds to send money to doctor's in order to help patients at this point. LLMD's that is.
IN the meantime, just do the best you can with what you have.

kam,
i missed seeing the part where you clicked on dr. oz ...
i looked for 10 minutes and this is all i could come up with ....
Sue Jackson writes a blog called Living With CFS. She wrote about this in a post titled, "Very Inaccurate Coverage of CFS on Dr. Oz." You may find it worthwhile to click and read it.

rick,
thanks for posting sue's blog ....
note, 3/4 down is a reply by dr. jacob tatolbaum, sp's RESPONSE to sue's criticism of the show ... very lengthy
then followed up by sue's reply to his post...
was going to try to copy it here, but it wouldn't let me .... very long sentences/paragraphs that go on forever!
