I just read your post and I know exactly how you feel. Please refer to my post earlier today "I need to find a Dr. in NW Indiana". I have lost all faith in Dr.s because of all I have been through! The only advise I have is to educate yourself as much as possible! I wish I had the internet 9 yrs ago when I first started all this! Good luck to you!!! God bless, Teresa
