Guest guest Posted August 3, 2004 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 While at the PLS Symposium I had a chance to meet an awesome neurologist in the Vermont area. He is Sue Niquette's neuro. Tanden, Rup – UVM College of Medicine, VT I would highly recommend him. Thomson > A new PLSer has contacted me asking for a name of a neurologist in his area who is familiar with PLS. He lives in northern Vermont. Does anyone have any suggestions that I can pass along? > > Dolores Carron d.carron@w... > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 3, 2004 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 Dolores: Being from NH, I can only relate to both of my neurologist, Dr. Neal In Bedford, NH and recently Dr. of the Lahey Clinic in Burlington, MA. As you know, since my diagnosis in 1986, have not been running from doctor to doctor, and have only been to Dr. Neal (and recently Dr. representing the MDA), and have adjusted my lifestyle accordingly. What is this person looking for? Is he willing to drive a couple of hours to meet with these doctor who know PLS and are honest and upfront about having PLS, no false promises and not money grabber's (no offense intended). I'd be more than glad to give him there telephone number's. Rita Till next time! Love & Hugs ************************************* Some people succeed in spite of their handicap.

Guest guest Posted April 22, 2005 Report Share Posted April 22, 2005 I went to the cardiologist today for the loop monitor. I frankly don't feel it is much different than the event monitor. I do not press the record button until I feel the flip flop and, by then it is gone. Can someone explain how this monitor is any better? Thanks, Kathy Re: need help Hi Kathy: I am so sorry I'm late with a welcoming response to you; especially one that's entitled *need help*. And I also noticed you are leaving for Dallas for ten days. Hopefully, you'll have access to a computer while there. We are not a medical site, and with your history of heart disease and double by-pass surgery, I hesitate to even suggest that it sounds like Afib; but how about seeing an electrophysiologist, a/k/a EP? An electrophysiologist is a cardiologist with special training in diagnosing, managing, and treating abnormal heart rhythms; an electrophysiologist is specially trained in the relationships of body functions to electrical phenomena in the body. Again, we welcome you - and when you return home, send us an update. Ellen ********************** I am a 57 year old female with advanced heart disease. I had double by-pass surgery almost 6 years ago.(snip)I am leaving for Dallas for ten days on Monday.(snip) What do yall think is going on? ********************** Web Page - http://www.afibsupport.com List owner: AFIBsupport-owner For help on how to use the group, including how to drive it via email, send a blank email to AFIBsupport-help Nothing in this message should be considered as medical advice, or should be acted upon without consultation with one's physician. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
