He doesnt use Igenex ( so he says) because why waste your money when lyme is a clinical diagnosis? He will keep retesting for insurance purposes just to see if he can pull SOMETHING.

Other than that, my other comments are stuffed in my cookie jar at home.

He will only call with the results if there is something wrong/unexpected. When my SO tested + for Babs he called to tell us and ask which drug store we wanted the script called in to.

You can call the office and have the results faxed to you.

Next time you have blood drawn, on the left of the form you can supply an additional fax number and/or address for the results to be sent to. This works, I use it all the time.

Also, Dr F. doesn't feel that the co-fection testing is accurate. He will treat for them without + results.

What is really inteeresting is that he can predict WB results based on previous treatment. He didn't expect my first WB with him to show any + bands because I had been on IV for a number of months prior to my going to him. After I started orals, I tested +. 15 months later only band 23 comes up +.

I hope this helps.

That said, I still have moments I'm not 100%, and I charge clients too. I still have lyme.

Eighteen months ago my son and I were very sick, without Dr F. we might not have made the progress we have. Dr. F figured out the underlying cause of my compromised immune sytem, six other doctors didn't have a clue.

My life has been re-claimed and my son's is getting there.

As long as he knows what to prescribe and when it doesn't matter if he is having a bad day. He ALWAYS listens, that is important.

I actually think he's great. I was just trying to describe how the office works. I recommend him all the time.
