    I wish, so FREAKING bad I had a doctor like you in my area. I may not have been to 12 doctors yet, but I'm almost half way there (4), and every single one of them has given a similar yet drastically different diagnosis. One said panic attacks, another says bipolar disorder, one neurologist said stress (after 5 minutes of conversation) and another neuro said anxiety. I've had a limp for 1 year, I'm sensitive to temperature changes, intention tremors in my legs and hands, insane fatigue plus more

    Dr. Clark, I'm currently filling out the pre-intake paperwork and cannot wait to hear what you have to say. I've been suffering from undiagnosed, constant (not chronic, literally constant) headaches for three years. The only relief I ever get is from opiates. I'm only 19 and the last three years have not been the life I'm supposed to be living. You give me hope that maybe, just maybe, one day I'll be normal again.

    How do you suggest finding a local doctor that is up to date on autoimmune issues?

    @TheSynergy2012 Your google plus privacy settings won't let me comment on your comment...but here's the answer anyway: POTS is often autoimmune, not always, but there's quite a bit of research showing that many patients' POTS is autoimmune.

    I have a question for you. I have that binder full of tests that you say and a lot of symptoms that I have had my whole life that have had no answers. I recently started studying into auto immune disorders and I have a lot of symptoms of all types of conditions. I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia among many other things but I still never feel like I get a real answer and so many different opinions. I recently have gotten an interest in researching blood types and I have found a lot of interesting information and a lot of reported problems that I have been having with others who have negative blood. Do you think there is a possible connection? Because it even says that a lot of us have auto immune disease/disorders, whatever. But it has answered a lot for me to look into because i almost feel better knowing that it could be a reason. Other examples are extreme sensitivity to sun/heat (probably due to most having lower melanin). Vitamin absorption issues which is one of the only answers I've got. Inflammation, Undiagnosed pain, Headaches, more sensitive senses (touch, sound, smell), Bowel problems (my whole life). Among many other things. Anyone with problems as such should look into your blood type and maybe it could answer some questions you may be seeking. It has done a lot to help me understand what has been going on and am a lot less worried now just knowing that.

    well, I know functional optometry is top of the line medical work for my convergence insufficiency so I would be willing to see a Functional neurologist. Now who do u recommend in the DC metro area or Mont. county, md? I do have hypothyroid and it is being treated.

    Ugh I wish some Dr. would help me. I have suffered from Vertigo for over 10 years now. No Dr. can really help me.. I think this might be me. I have done several tests, ive tried B-12 shots, Ive tried every natural herb or supplement you can think of, I have a pantry full of stuff and most of them I cant take bc it makes me feel weird. So yes, I think I have an undiagnosed Autoimmune thing and I need to see you! But im all the way in Denver! :(

    I wish to god you could help my daughter but we live in the UK. Do you know anyone in the UK with your knowledge on autoimmune disorders. Our daughter has suffered over a year after the HPV vaccine and doctors haven't found anything wrong but they have not considered autoimmune condition. :(

    I have a lot of autoimmune relatives and every one tested positive for one or more of these EBV, HBV, herpes viruses. The question is how to get rid of the virus. Because the doctors subscribe chemotherapy like drugs. Antiviral drugs are not fun to take.

    Haha! I have results from cardiologist, neurologist, pulmanologist, gastronomic, 24 separate labs, general practice, eye dr, surgeon, diagnosticians, ER drs, who by the way treated me like some drug addict ( yeah I had over 3&1/2 LITERS of fluid in my rt pleural space and 12+ pulmonary embolisms killing tissue) pain. And growths in my lacrimal glands, and in my bronchioles. They slapped me w 'boop' and gave up on me. Finally a smart dr who had the time, read my story n I have sarcoidosis.:p sti
