Oh, sorry to hear this. I went to a rheumy in

Portland a couple of times (out of pocket, so I

couldn't continue), before I was diagnosed. He was

very nice and very thorough. This was an unrelated

problem, so don't know if he is knowledgeable about

RP. Your sister could sure call him and ask. His

name is Dr. Kip Kemple. Good luck to your sister.
