Guest guest Posted May 7, 2004 Report Share Posted May 7, 2004 This is Janet Sample from Wisconsin. You live in Ann Arbor? Are there any good mito docs there? The reason I ask is because I may be over there this summer for a month or two--not sure. My husband's sister and her husband live a short distance from Ann Arbor in the country near South Lyons. My son and I have very mild symptoms and he had a slight seizure last November--more severe than his abscense ones where he lost his memory for a few hours. We have the doc in Milwaukee but if we are going to be in Michigan for a while would like to have the name of a doc just in case. Re: didn't feel good, is this mito? > Hi this is Bug in Michigan.
