Hi Daisy
 
That is amazing - as I said in my post his focus is primarily ME/CFS, but I'd imagine he wouldn't turn away someone with ES - the symptoms are very similar but then pathology could be very different. In the presentation I sawhe described the battery of tests he would go through and I think he said it would take about a week or 2 weeks to complete them. From what I know, he goes into great depth, and something he said really stayed with me because he said that the tests would show what was malfunctioning with a person, and that even if it couldn't be treated at that time [perhaps because the technology or the appropriate medical intervention didn't exist] then when in time treatment became available something could be done about it then. Let me know how you go.
 
Regards
 
Steph

HI Steph,

Thanks so much - I found the Nightingale site. They're actually in
Ottawa, ON!! Yipee!
I will definitely look into this doctor.
I will need to know if he believes in ES and if every patient has to
go thru all the tests - SPECT scan, nuclear medicine test... dye
injections.. . I am very leary about those tests in light of my ES and
MCS.

Has anyone had experience with him - gone to see him?

Thanks a bunch!
