my sister's doctor

[Guest guest]

Boy, did my sister luck out! We recently had a discussion

about my being on cynomel, self-treating, hypo symptoms, etc., etc., etc. She

decided to talk to her doctor because she has nearly all, if not all, of the

symptoms I have, she just hasn't had the blood work done. Her doctor is not

familiar with rT3, T3 only medication, etc., but is willing to prescribe! My

sister saw her this week after getting her blood results back. The doctor

remembers requesting a rT3 test after my sister suggested it, but it was not in

the results. Because of all of her symptoms, my symptoms and success on

cynomel, she wrote her a prescription! While my sister was meeting with the

doctor, they joked that she would probably call her back soon after talking to

me with more questions and/or suggestions. Her doctor than told her to call me

while in her office, so the three of us could talk! Unfortunately my sister had

left her phone at home and didn't know my phone number. I am so impressed with

this doctor! I also like her because she has indicated she thinks it's awesome

that I'm going to grad school to be a naturopathic doctor! She is an MD, but,

she is awesome! I just wish she was local, but she is somewhere around

Lexington, VA.

Just wanted to share that there are some doctors out there

not familiar, but willing to learn and experiment!

That's great, ! Great that she listens, and acts on symptoms! My doctor does to a degree, but I wanted her to start me on the Cytomel last week, and she's waiting on stupid labs. She is having a great weekend, I'm sure, with her family....enjoying herself, and I'm still waiting to START on a treatment. She knew 3 weeks ago that I'm reversing from the old labs, and she took me off of Naturethroid because she thot maybe my shortness of breath was from being HYPER....ha. So...I get to sit here on my birthday and be miserable and she gets to "keep from prescribing" the Cytomel for some unknown reason. Ugh. (Yes, I'm whining).
