Melissa,
Yes! I have a few and hope they are close to you. If these doctors are
not close to you, I also found some compounding pharmacies (the only
ones who can make the bio-identical hormones) in Virginia as well and
they can assist in helping find you a doctor who will help you too! You
may just want to call them and ask them to recommend a reputable doctor
is who can test your hormones. I hope this helps. I really think a
hormone check is what you need to find out what is wrong. I went
through all the tests you are going through and none of them helped me
either. Good Luck! :) Let me know how this goes!
