When to see ME about your skin, digestive or (any other) disorder.
June 11th, 2013 at 11:23 pm

   

 It's a DIY world for sure and most of you are trying to figure out your health problems on your own or with reading articles or blogs... and that's fine at least,  at first.  Don't wait til your problem reaches BIBLICAL proportions though before seeking help.  I'd also avoid making the following missteps to save time,money, pain and suffering.

 

While mild digestive or skin issues can sometimes  be successfully cleared up on your own with time, some minor rest and/or over the counter medications, sometimes it is best to see your doctor , or ME or BOTH!

 

1. You have never been diagnosed.

If you are not sure what you have it IS best to start with your medical doctor to get an appropriate diagnosis.  Sometimes organic problems exist and you DO need a biopsy or colonoscopy or ultrasound.  Your MD should make the diagnosis, and determine the need for testing,  in most cases NOT YOU! I am astonished at how many people come to my office telling me what is wrong and telling me what they want to be tested for.  I don't get involved with these cases.

2.  Your condition  is worsening despite good home and medical care.

 

If, after careful and consistent treatment medically and on your own at home, your skin, rash, acne, reflux, IBS, etc... isn't improving or seems to be worsening, you may want to contact me.

Often, symptoms exist due to larger process...IE Blood pressure increases due to stress, acne due to hormonal fluctuations, as well as any number of other reasons.  Delving into the process causing your trouble is paramount to resolving it.  Also,  many symptoms occur due to functional problems which are not diseases.

 

 .I am usually a better choice for these types of conditions.

3. You think your problem may be caused by an elective  medication or you prefer to not take medication long term.

Most medications cause side effects. Some side effects are common, others are quite insidious may involve serious detective work to establish.  Some chronic health problems can be reversed without medication.  Usually coming to see me is a better plan since I can help folks make sustainable health changes without medication.  Ergo, if you are not on medication you won't need to address medication side effects

4. You are extremely upset or depressed about your problem but no one can find anything "wrong".

Your skin rash, acne, digestive situation, reflux, allergy, fatigue... is ruining your life!  You have gone from place to place and are only getting worse.  Your family, medical team, office are starting to roll their eyes about your health situation.  Still no one has found anything wrong with you.  You are getting worse and you are scared.  Many folks, in fact MOST come to see me at this point.  Often I can identify causes that have not been addressed and people begin to feel better within a month or so. It isn't easy convenient nor without expense but often works incredibly well if the client is willing to do the work.
