A lot of these guys dont take insurance but they do believe in silicone toxicity. That is where I found my new doc. go to acam.org to locate someone near you. hopefully they will be more understanding and give you what you need.

I was looking forward to this appt because my general md hasn't been able to give me anything that helps with my joint pain...I've been on several different pain meds. I was hoping the rheum. would be able to put me on something stronger or at least something that would help. He told me to take Tylenol. Then he went into this big long thing about how no doctors really believe that implants cause these illnesses. I am really frustrated. I am in pain every day and nothing seems to help. I've been trying to be more active and do easy work outs, but it doesn't seem to be helping yet. Please someone tell me what idiots some doctors are and that I am not crazy and the fact that he told me to just take Tylenol is insulting.
