Guest guest Posted October 28, 2011 Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 Hi Caz I have just sent you my list of recommended doctors and pointed out that you may need to be referred outside of your area, but it would be worth it. Dr S's fees are £180 for an hours consultation, I don't know what he charges for a follow up consultation. You sound pretty desperate. What is happening? What symptoms are you suffering and what signs do you have? Do you have any thyroid function test results or any other results available you could show us, together with the reference range. Tell us what you are going through right now and what medication you are taking and we will try to help you in finding out what is the cause. Luv - Sheila I`m back again! Please does anyone know of any good doctors in Cambridgeshire, who they have seen, that will actually listen and treat suspected Hypo/Adrenal issues? Or has anyone got the " Fees " for Dr S in Birmingham, as i may have to go to him, but i`ve got to borrow money for this. I`m at my wits end now Many thanks Caz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can i go and see Dr S without a referral? as i`m not sure my GP will referr me.ThanksCaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has/Does anyone on else on here do that? Is it dangerous? I`ve had enough, all i do know is that i AM NOT prepared to live like this for the rest of my life.Many thanksCaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
