I FOUND A FABULOUS RHEUMATOLOGIST IN QUINCY, IL IN DECEMBER OF 2012.
THE BEST WAY TO DESCRIBE HIM.. HE IS PERSONABLE.. HE TAKES THE TIME NEEDED... DOESN'T TREAT YOU LIKE A NUMBER AND PUSH YOU ON THRU THE DOOR...
ONE VISIT MAY BE 20 MIN. THE NEXT ONE AN HOUR... IT ALL DEPENDS, HOW I HAVE BEEN FEELING....
I COULD GO ON AND ON BUT I BETTER NOT.. LOL
TAKE CARE

Not sure where Quincy is but, I live in Effingham, IL! I have been going to the Carle Clinic with Natalie Sessions. Maybe we can chat sometime, or use Private Messaging to compare notes! :-) So far I have only seen her twice and go back in 3 months... still have not had meds such as Dmards or Biologics. I am on a muscle relaxer and an Nsaid gel (I can't take oral Nsaids). I am supposed to be doing my physical therapy exercises at home... my CRP test is negative, ESR test negative, Lupus test borderline but, she said people with psoriasis have open sores and she has seen it is very common for us to test borderline and the number would have to be very high for her to think it was Lupus... RA test Negative, and OA possible due to 3 major car accidents in my life.
