Guest guest Posted February 5, 2002 Report Share Posted February 5, 2002 I've seen Dr Kashif in Charlotte, NC. He will not perscribe antibiotics. I've also seen Dr. Speight, he does not take any insurance plans and will rob you blind before he will agree to perscribe anything. He bilked me out of over $ 3,000.00 and wanted me to take 2 more tests for over $1,500.00 before he agreed to give me anything. I got my money back after I threatened to inform the local newspaper & television shows of the " practice " he runs, but the whole thing was a mess. In charlotte, NC I did find Dr. Acampora 704-366-0080, a great and caring md. --- egkelley62 <stdegk11@...> wrote: > Hi fellow seekers, > > I have added a text file containing a list of > doctors to the FILES > section of this group.

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2002 Report Share Posted February 6, 2002 This is strange as I know people who have gone to him and haven't had problems. They were crazy about him. On my sheet to send to him that I received when I was going to go to him asked for my insurance carrier and you had to check that benefits assigned would be sent to his clinic which in normal. Also when I called to make the appointment, they asked which insurance company I had which is also normal. I am not doubting you, this just seems odd as I am looking at the form they sent me right now. t 05:18 PM 2/5/2002 -0800, you wrote: >I've seen Dr Kashif in Charlotte, NC.

Did Dr. Acampora prescribe the antibiotic for you? Perhaps I can add him to our list. Chris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 8, 2002 Report Share Posted February 8, 2002 Yes, he was happy to after talking to him about it for a while. Now he's even happier after seeing the improvement I'm having. --- and Chas Adlard <cadlard@...> wrote: > Hi - > > >In charlotte, NC I did find Dr. Acampora > >704-366-0080, a great and caring md. > > Did Dr. Acampora prescribe the antibiotic for you? > Perhaps I can add him to > our list. > > Chris. > __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 3, 2002 Report Share Posted July 3, 2002 I don't know if I could refer any of the half dozen or so doctors I have been to. I went to a specialist in New York City for years who seemed top notch...but he never mentioned osteoporosis as a risk. I had to find that out on one of my lists. Another endo in NJ was good, but I only visited once or twice a year and he lost my records! The one I see now in Cincinnati poo pooed the subject of depression and other emotional complications on my last visit, while these seem to be well documented. So, I just haven't found a doc that is really top notch, in my opinion. Someone asked about causes of Hypogonadism. To my knowledge, unless HH occurs later in life, the cause is unknown. Seems strange to me that the pituitary gland/hypothalamus would only be deficient in only one or two hormones. I have never even heard of any research on the subject. BUT, it does make more sense to use HCG therapy (if you can afford it and want to be bothered with three injections a week) since it simulates the missing hormones.

Guest guest Posted July 4, 2002 Report Share Posted July 4, 2002 Dean, My research found that much of the secondary hypogonadism is probably due to the immune system. In the pituitary, each hormone is created by specialized cells that make that hormone and that one alone. There are many different types of cells there. The immune system can decide to destroy the cells that make a particualr hormone - no one knows why - and leave all the others in tact. That's how it can stop T production but leave other hormones at normal levels. They are just barely beginning to understand this stuff, so there aren't a lot of answers yet. My Endo says that one of the body's reactions to stress is to inactivate the reproductive system. If an organism is under stress and the body percieves it as a threat to survival, the last thing on the list to spend energy on is reproduction. That's why prednisone can ruin your T production, because at high doses for an extended period of time, the body reacts to prednisone as extreme stress.

Guest guest Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 Hi , I sent you a non-organized list of doctors a few days ago. Also, someone else in your area sent you an e-mail today with her e-mail address stating that she has a doctor you can try. I don't think my list has doctors in Sacramento area, or even in my own area of Monterey. I will forward the message that was sent to you from in Sacramento: " I live about an hour from Sacramento but go to a neuro in Sacramento. It took 5 " no's " before I got a yes, so I hope you contact me. I have the name,number etc. I can give you. Contact me at clorenzo01@... I have had MS for 10 years and have found LDN to be the only thing that is helpful, its been remarkable!

Guest guest Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 Hello Aletha!! I was wondering if you could direct me to a list of LDN friendly doctors. There is a very sweet lady on this forum that has finally had it with CRABS. I have told her of LDN in the past, and she is very interested in trying it. Big suprise, her neuro will not prescribe it to her. She is supposed to email me with her city if the list of doc's is that extensive. Any help would be most appreciated, thanks so much for your time!! Jon > Hi , > > I sent you a non-organized list of doctors a few days ago.

Guest guest Posted May 13, 2005 Report Share Posted May 13, 2005 Hi Jon, Of course. If she needs further names I remember someone pointing to a site with a list of doctors names. I think the site was located on " This is MS " or something like that name. My list is very disorganized as I have not had time to sort it out. One doctor on the list may be willing to do phone consults. His name is Dr. Weeks and he has posted on our chat site a number of times. Please let me know how it goes. Kindest of regards Aletha [low dose naltrexone] List of doctors >> >> >> > Hi everyone, I am still on my quest to convince my neuro to put > me on >> > LDN.

Guest guest Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Hi Everyone, A friend needs to have her 5 y/o twin daughters assessed for autism and developmental disorders. She was presented this list of doctors by her insurance company. Can anyone give any feedback about any of the doctors. I don't want you to talk badly about anyone who may not have been helpful, but I would like to tell my friend if any of these doctors were parent/kid friendly and correct in the diagnosis of your children. Thanks for your help!

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Dear , There are a few of us that keep lists. We can look up your area to see if we can find a doctor near you. Where do you live? Aletha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
