Guest guest Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Dr. Arem never prescribed me armour just synthroid and cytomel, I think. I asked but never got a answer. Expect to pay $1000 for first visit. Yvette > > Arem will Rx Armour or Cytomel, but not treat below a TSH of 1.0, no matter how bad the patient feels. This is why he is not on our list. Why pay big buck$ to be undermedicated when your GP can do the same thing for a $20. copay? > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 I saw Dr. Arem and cannot recommend him to anyone. When I first saw him I felt good but my symptoms returned and because he could not figure them out he told me they would go away. You will pay him alot of money to spend 10 minutes with you. I thought he would help me because he wrote that book. Yvette > > Can anyone provide feedback on this dr? Dr. Manso suggested that I see > him and that I read his book, The Thyroid Solution.

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 I posted this over a year ago and am not sure why it is just now coming up? Maybe the year was wrong in the post? Weird!

When I firstsaw him I felt good but my symptoms returned and because he could not figure them out he told me they would go away. You will pay him alotof money to spend 10 minutes with you.

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Why do you think nobody wants to talk to you? You got a reply from Yvette, and there are six posts in that thread, some going all the way back to April. > > >> > > Can anyone provide feedback on this dr?

Guest guest Posted September 3, 2008 Report Share Posted September 3, 2008 Sorry, I thought it just appeared and was misdated and wanted people to know that I didn't have any questions on him. I just had surgery and am still dealing with some brain fog so haven't totally been digesting the e-mails. I guess nobody wants to talk to me.

It would not have bothered me if I was not in this frame of mind. The T3 was working but they took me off of it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
