Re: CFIDS PAIN MED AND DR IN ATLANTA

[Guest guest]

Ken would you mind checking with anyone who has CFIDS and gets the CFIDS

Chronicle if they remember the oral surgeon in Atlanta that was trying out

a drug a narcotic with a low abuse level at the time it was only available

in injection but he was trying to get it in a new pill form that would

dissolve under u r tongue. I have misplaced my info on him his name phone

number and the drugs name. He did not go through with the study I don't

believe but he told me he would be willing to work with my Dr to get her

the info and what he knew and how to get it. If anyone has any of this info

I need it ASAP Please Thanks Barb

Would this be the Dr. Fey or Frey that is the subject of the big flame

war on alt med.fibro? Seems they have been talking about some doc in

Atlanta who is supposed to have a " cure " . You may want to check there

and see if it's the same one.

Success is not measured by how well we deal with plan " A " but by how

well we deal with plan " B " .

Geesh...is there a flame war there too?Seems as if all the boards in war

mode..arthritis too. Way to stressful for me...Even lurking is painful

there!!! Uptight people...has to be one of my main pet peeves. You guys,

seem so much more laid back here, thanks

Lyn,

With folks like Ken, Mike, etc., we don't have a chance to get into a

flaming fight. Anyway, the list is more about support than it is about

arguing treatments. We represent so many different ailments particular

treatments aren't as important as they might be on other lists.

However, supporting and encouraging each other, is one of the

characteristics of this list that keeps me coming back for more.

Everyone gets a pat on the back...if you can reach that far.

So far I agree wholeheartedly ! What a wonderful caring environment you

have all created . I feel great here. I may never leave! You are stuck

with me! I had begun to get very disallusioned with support on the net,

thanks all!
