This should be posted under 'Seeking a Doctor'. A good resource for doctor recommendations is a Support Group. Check the link on the upper left side of this page to see if there's a group near you.

i just sent you a pm because i am hoping to compare treatments with other dr.r patients. i am just curious you mentioned he has you on IV...did you have to get a spect scan done?

Thanks for any info.

yes. i had a spec scan done at Columbia, and it showed moderate to severe hypoperfusion. but I don't think dr.r insists on having that before he'll do IV.

I will answer your pm tonight or tomorrow in more detail.
