CallieAndToby Posted March 10, 2019 Report Share Posted March 10, 2019 I used to see Dr. Randy Thompson because I only live 3 hours away from Pensacola. AS many of you know, he was sick himself and got too sick to continue practicing. He helped me so much but I haven't been able to find anybody in my city since he retired. I saw a woman and she was against saline iv's and medication. I saw another local cardio and he said "I treat it naturally. Hydration and exercise. I know it's hard but you can exercise." I have chronic fatigue syndrome, no I can't, it makes me drastically sicker. So I'm not sure where to go from here. I live in Tallahassee, FL. I thought things were under control but in these past 3 weeks I've passed out twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KiminOrlando Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 This is happening to me too. My doctor in Charleston, SC is no longer seeing patients. He will be doing research only. I was driving up from Orlando to see him. Too many other places just told me to eat more salt and drink more water. It would pass. They were constantly wrong. A little worried about what happens next... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mom is an RN and today she had a patient who is a PA in medicine and has dysautonomia. He has a port and said the saline iv's help a lot. So my mom said WHAT DOCTOR DO YOU SEE? He gave her the name of a local guy and said he's really good, again I have forgotten his name. The lady I was seeing here kept telling me to drink gatorade and wear hose but I have terrible bladder problems, I can't drink that stuff. I will come back when I have a name I'm in tallahassee, or I can see the guy first and let you know how goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallieAndToby Posted March 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 He has mixed reviews. I'll see him and tell you what I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KiminOrlando Posted March 13, 2019 Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 Ok. Mine was a POTS clinic so they are going to get another doctor for it, but you never know. I hope he is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
