I'm in the UK as well and I think its difficult to find a doctor who is willing/able to help. There isn't any generally accepted pharmaceutical treatment programme in the UK as far as I know but I occasionally hear someone has been given some help from a GP. Most people have the experience of being given no help from doctor, or because of knowing this possibility or even worse being diagnosed as delusional, don't even try. The most likely helpful situation is a family doctor who has know a patient over many years and therefore has a longstanding relationship with them and is therefore more open to hearing about symptoms. This was my situation recently going to the GP as my husband has long wanted me to see a dermatologist and thinks he has found a MD friendly one. We shall see! My GP in fact was quite ok about the referral but I didn't use the word 'morgellons', just told him the information that he wanted. Its also important to stay calm and rational otherwise a doctor's response is generally to want to give antidepressants/antipsychotics. In actual fact at this time I am doing a lot better having been on Mel's Protocol here for 18 months now. There is a lot of wonderful information on this site about how to get well. You could start working on diet changes straight away as although it is a big change in our lives changing the way we eat it costs no more and possibly costs less than how we used to eat. When I first found this site I read through the home page and followed the instructions given to read, read read, and read through the whole forum, all the threads on all the pages and got a wonderful over view of how people got better here. There are also lots of articles to read which will give lots of helpful information and on the thread More Communication there are recorded calls which are very informative with lots of questions answered. Don't despair, there is a way forward and as Mel says, always hope and those who never give up on hope do get well. |
