Re: Sore gums and extreme hunger question-Laurie et. all

[Guest guest]

Hi Laureta,

I am glad you have a good doc who will at least run tests when needed, as

that can make all the difference. The fact that she is supportive of you is

great too, I know how not having a supportive doc can devastate an already

devastating situation.

By the way, I saw my far-away, good Family Practice doc, and he is going to

arrange for me to have the vitamins in injectible form! Yea!

This is what I mean by not having to convince. I just showed him the Cohen

article and he agreed to work with the pharmacist to get the stuff for me.

Another doc, a neuro that deals regularly with Mito, acted like he didn't

even know what I was talking about when I asked him for injectibles, but

the Family Practice doc is getting it arranged for me. It is like night and

day with doctors! It is very frustrating, I also will have to go back to

learn how to inject myself, talk about energy loss, I am still recovering

from this trip! It would have been so much easier if my local neuro had

been open to it, I could have had it started in a flash, but no, I have to

leave the state and go to a doc that will put my needs first.

By the way, the neuro that acted dumb when I mentioned injectibles was more

than ready to prescribe Rx drugs, but God-forbid he prescrible natural

vitamins that are already prescribled for the disease! ugh!

God bless,

Hazlepone
