Since you already have a rheumy, you can start out with him. Have him run some more testing as well as review ALL of the medications, herbs, and vitamins you are taking. It could very well be a side effect of medication.

In the meantime, check out some endocrinologists in your area and get some recommendations. This way you have one already picked out should you need one.

I wish you the best and please let us know how everything turns out.

Saw the neuro today. Ms is holding at the same level. No better no
worse. Which is actually good news.
He checked the blood work results and said it is better the B12 is
higher then lower. (No Kidding) Has no idea why it is that high.
Suggests to see a Dermo. for the loss of the hair ????????

I am so at a loss to what kind of dr. I should go and see. All these
specialists. Wish we could go to ONE dr. and he takes care of everything.

I am seriously thinking about going to see a Hemotologists as some of
you suggested.

Thanks for listening

Jappy
