I need to find a new rheumy ASAP! My biologic failed quite awhile ago, then had hip replacement on Feb 6th and can’t see my rheumy until April 2nd because they don’t take emergency appointments and he’s all booked up.
Meanwhile, I’m suffering with fatigue and flu-like symptoms etc. You know the drill.
Thanks for your help!
I’m so sorry! I am in Michigan unfortunately. I can pray from here though… Try to relax and breath fully like yoga style… Stress is the WORST for you…
Hi there. I use Dr. Mary Howell in Hagerstown. She’s fantastic and super thorough!
I see Dr. Bunker at Georgetown. I started seeing him a couple of years ago when my last Rheumy retired. He’s a great Dr and a nice guy too. He is young too so he won’t retire on you!

Thanks for everyone’s help with finding a rheumy in VA, MD or DC. Much appreciated!
Today I spent the entire day in bed due to debilitating fatigue. My hands and feet hurt and my whole body aches. I did get an appointment for tomorrow with Carroll Arthritis, Maryland, that was recommended under referrals on this site. The office is 1 1/2 hours from my house in non-rush hour traffic. At this point I don’t know if I can even drive myself tomorrow, I’m so fatigued and feel sick. My 83-year old Mother has offered to go with me and drive if needed - unbelievable that my Mother is in better physical health than me!
LaMomma, thanks for your well wishes - much needed!
