hi cindy,

i really started seeing her mostly because she's the doctor in town that prescribes LDN and i really don't want to continue with my current local rheumy that prescribes the LDN now that i have the rheumy in philly and he's trying to get me in to see a better local rheumy now. but he wasn't impressed with my reports on LDN though i know its helpful, he wants to find me something that prevents flares, whereas for me, LDN doesn't seem to do that. but i know the LDN is helpful. this new doctor did say she'd prescribe it if i need her to.

as for the various doctors consulting, nobody consults with anybody, i have to keep it all straight. they do all ask me about all the drugs and supplements i'm on, so that's good. and some of the docs, well the endocrinologist at least, thinks about all these things together.
