So I haven't posted about the Specialist appointment because I have been waiting on test results! But here is what I know...
Then in the second post, things get real... Emotional!!!
I had the unfortunate luck of getting one of those doctors that read a book, and if IT isn't in the book then it just isn't true!
For example, she told me to stop taking the adrenal fatigue supplements that my primary doctors started me on and have greatly made a difference! Why would I stop taking them? She says there is no such thing as adrenal fatigue!
Go ahead, google it, it's real!!! That was problem 1 with this dr!
Lupus doesn't always show up in blood work, there is no one test to test for Lupus! And this doctor disagrees, with even the Lupus Foundation!
So, now to find another doctor!
Here is the link to the Lupus Foundation website, just for your info!
