Guest guest Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 Hi Everyone, I'm moving back to Michigan from New York (where I found no help for my pain) and I'm wondering if anyone has discovered a new doctor there. I used to see Dr. Sobel, who is very nice, but he really didn't have a solution for me and my condition has gotten much worse over the four years I've been in NY. I know Hope Haefner at U of M is supposed to be very good, but takes a very long time to get an appointment with. Is there anyone else? Thanks so much.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 Dr. Sobel is the best dr. I've seen with all of my issues. It took me 6 months to see him. Although he didn't really help me, he seems closest to understanding what my issues are. It does take forever to get into Hope Haeffner. Her colleague, who works in research is Dr. Reid. She claims to be the number one researcher in Vulvar issues in the world. I've seen her. She didn't really help me, though. She prescribed desipramine and sent me on my way. She may be able to help you. I don't have typical issues. If you call Dr. Haeffner's office, she'll refer you. Dr. Reid's just outside of Ann Arbor in Chelsea, MI. Good luck!

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 Have you tried natural anti-inflammatories? Things like quercetin, turmeric, rosemary, etc. etc.? Hollis " A doctor here did genetic testing and found that I have 2 gene polymorphisms - one that can't fight inflammation and the other that can't fight infection (fortunately we have other things that do that!). The only option he had were shots that cost $1700 a month and were not covered by insurance. Or Celebrex - which I'm allergic to. So I have to do something to kill the source of the inflammation, since my body can't fight it. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
