Guest guest Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 , Did your doctor prescribe the blood test or is it possible to get the diagnostics on your own, without a doctor's request? I think my son my be sensitive too b/c an earlier blood test for environmental allergens showed that he was allergic to almost everything.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 I actually went through a chiropractor. I found a wonderful one about a stone's throw from our house. When I described my daughter's condition to him, he was the ONE person who believed me and didn't recommend therapy immediatley or a head shrinker. They have nutritional specialists and dieticians, etc. at his office. My insurance did cover the blood work. They also did a hair follicle test and a poop test. And for what it's worth, he believes this is a neurological condition.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 wow your insurance covered it? That's great! My insurance (when I had it) wouldn't do that stuff. When I lived in NYC hair tests were illegal and I had to go to Jersey to get one. I'm American Indian (part but a registered with card kind) and wonder if the tribal clinic will do that sort of thing. Was it the ELISA blood test that you used? I had some blood taken showing my d and b12 levels low but I did all these injections and ivs of b12 and they made me more tired. I wonder sometimes if where the sources of where they get certain vitamins are my allergy points. I wish I could eat soy. Anything high in estrogen bothers me and makes me handle my 4S badly. Sometimes if I eat meat that's not organic, I feel like killing someone. > > > > Subject: Re: food sensitivities > To: Soundsensitivity > Date: Monday, February 8, 2010, 5:28 PM > > > Â > > > > > , > > Did your doctor prescribe the blood test or is it possible to get the > diagnostics on your own, without a doctor's request?

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 You really should get a complete workup done, if you can. I would try the tribe. I wish I knew the exact kind of blood test it was. All my paperwork is at my job, but I'll post it when I get a chance. I truly from the bottom of my heart feel for all people on this board. It's hard watching my daughter suffer. I have 5 children but a mother can only be as happy as her saddest child.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 I really do appreciate the parents that come on here for ppl like us. My parents would never do such things for me. If throwing money at a problem won't make it go away, they don't want to hear about it unless it makes them laugh. They find the way I describe my issues funny and I think that my pain is a source of entertainment for them. I can't imagine anyone in my corner giving a ratt's ass.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 Ditto my parents, but they wouldn't have thrown money at it either--just more of a " get over it " But one of your gifts, Pia, is humor, so no wonder they think it's funny how you describe it--you are funny, no way around it, which may take away from how they view the severity of your issues. You have a gift. Families have a tendency to underestimate the seriousness of issues anyway, especially if they think it's funny. A bit of a cruel twist.
