I'm new to the forums - referred by clarebear.

I was diagnosed with lupus 6 years ago, then ended up with a loser doctor who told me I was a hypochondriac. Long story.

Anyway, I am about to get back on insurance after being uninsured for about 3 years, and I need a new doctor in the dallas/fort worth area who will listen to me!!!!!! I am currently struggling through an episode (my foot is swollen to the point that I can't wear shoes on it - thank heaven for birkenstocks!!!! Rolling Eyes

); fevers, sinus/utis/etc.

Anyone have any recommendations??

Thanks in advance,
nancy

Hi nancyintx! I am ladybrannon who is also in texas. Welcome to the forum. Unfortunately, I just moved here and I live in austin. So, I can't help with the doctor issue.

But I did want to welcome you and tell you that this is a great place. I look forward to getting to know you better.

Hugs,
ladybrannon

Hi nancy, i'm mia. Welcome, i'm from dallas, also. What area are you living in? I've had a great doctor in dallas, that I unfortunetly can no longer go to because of insurance, his name is scott zashin. He is the president of the north texas chapter of the lupus association. I don't know if he is on your new insurance or not, but that is my recommendation.

Good luck,

mia

Ok, ok, so ladies I don't go on the forum all the time.

Welcome, nancy. But you already knew that. I hope you've gotten a better doctor by the time you read this and your personal email.

I am very happy you joined. Laughing
