This isn't he answer you're wanting, but Pocomoke should be within a

day's drive for you (Google maps shows it to be about a 9.5 hour drive)

and while Dr. Shoemaker accepts few insurances (I think he takes

Medicare and some local insurances), it is still well worth the

investment in terms of money you'll save by going to someone that has a

clue. His upfront fee is a fraction of what the top CFS/FM doctors

charges and any follow-ups are an absolute bargain compared to these

other docs. His office does provide the forms that you can file with

your insurance for out of network benefits and you should be able to

battle them to get them considered as in-network since there's not

likely an in-network doctor that is experienced in treating mold

illnesses. The lab fees can really add up, but the majority of mine

were run in standards labs that accept my insurance, so I paid very

little out-of-pocket for those.

I'm speaking from personal experience having tried to save money for

several years by using local doctors and spending a lot more in pain,

suffering and real dollars by paying these people that were telling me

there was nothing wrong with me (and to just take high doses of a

thyroid medicine to which I was allergic and just drink a glass of wine

if I had trouble sleeping at nite). I even spent $600 out of pocket

taking my oldest son to a top allergy doctor in our area that the

pediatrician recommended. It took me over 2 years of constant

searching and reading to come across Shoemaker's research and then

another 6 months trying to convince my local doctor to run all the

tests to finally make the trip from Texas. My local doctor happily

prescribed CSM, but I had a feeling based on the gene information I

already had and symptoms that I would be one of the tough cases. I'm

also one of the unfortunate ones that didn't realize I had a mold issue

and I was going to him for objective treatment/diagnosis for my Lyme

disease, only to have him tell me I had a mold problem. It took me

another 4 months to fully accept that. Since, you're already there, I

can't recommend strongly enough that you travel to Pocomoke. Since

seeing him, I've tried to find a local doctor that has a clue and even

with the test results in black and white, most of them are still

overwhelmed with the information and the theories. And, most of them

don't have the time to read the materials that I'm willing to provide.

It's a very sad reflection of our current medical system in this

country and I wouldn't expect it to be much different in your area of

the country than it is in Texas.

Peace and healing,

B

Don't give up!! I just thought may be you were close enough to make the

trip to MD. There must be some Drs. closer to you. I thought someone mentioned

a

couple of Drs. in Georgia but it was sometime ago and I can't remember who

they were.

Try to hang in there until we find someone for you!!!!!!!

I can't go to land. I don't have a decent car to get me there.

I am willing to go within 5 hours of my home.

I know you all have high respect for Dr. Shoemaker but for some of us

who don't have the money or proper vehicle to get there, it is

impossible. Aren't there other doctors besides Dr. Shoemaker???impo

mean this as no disrespect to Dr. Shoemaker but I am not wealthy and

I can't take a mini vacation and I can't drive all the way to

land in my shabby car. Doesn't anyone know of any other doctor

on this forumn besides Dr. Shoemaker who is in the South around South

Carolina????Carolina????<WBR>??? I have athena insurance and medicare. I

as well give up because I really thought I could get more answers

about a doctor in my area on here. Sorry if I seem flustered, I am

not flustered but having an ill and sick day, my life seems to be

sucked out of me... and I am at a point of giving up as i can't seem

to get any answerers about medical help anywhere. I am tired of

fighting this illness.

Thanks anyway.

Check out coem.com in North ton, SC. They have been of great assistance

to me.

would ask any DR you want an apt. with up

therapy. It will save you allot of trouble.- What I did when I moved

out to NM and needed to get a new script for CSM, and the local DRs

knew nothing ,was call the large medical center about an hr away-Told

the Medical receptionist exactly what I had and what I needed, and for

her to find me a Dr-she got back to me in 2 days with an app. and now I

have a Dr who is learning and gives me my meds.

If I was you , I would call Shoemakers office, ask for a paitient

packet, fill it out and get an appointment- that could take months-then

if you need the app, you have it- you can find a way to get there if

you have to- and sleep in your car if need be, others have done it. No

tests except the Shoemaker ones will show mold poisoning, you can buy

the " Mold Warriors " book, and show a Dr the tests- which may not even be

necessary, first you need to start detoxing with CSM-see if you recover-

that may be all you need.
