Guest guest Posted July 5, 2011 Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 Can you point me to the file for Dr Grim's CV? I see it's supposed to be in the Files area but I can't find it - I'm doing a search for " CV " or " curriculum " but getting no results. Thanks. I've taken the article to my current doctors and all have been appreciative. I also sent copies via certified mail to all of the doctors who have missed my diagnosis in the past 10 years, as well as to the head of the medical group of the most recent doctor that I " fired " (because he told me my HTN and palpitations were " typical middle-aged woman problems " ). Never got a response from any of them! -msmith1928 Nulliparous female, 46, 5'3 " , 120 lbs, polymenorrhea, hyperinsulinemia, hereditary fructose intolerance, lactose intolerance, probable gluten intolerance.

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2011 Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 Hmmm, now I can't find it either. It used to be in there and that's how I printed it out. I have it saved on my computer, but it hasn't been updated since 7/30/10 and he's got some updating to do. I'll send you what I have to your personal email as an attachment.How about an update Dr. Grim?Subject: Re: Dr Grim's article and CVTo: hyperaldosteronism Date: Tuesday, July 5, 2011, 9:57 AM Can you point me to the file for Dr Grim's CV?
