Have you seen this video? Dr. Klimas is in it. See for yourself.

Dr. Klimas is no longer at the University of Miami. She is opening a new center just for CFS and GWS in Davie but it's not open yet. Last time I called I was told that it would open sometime around October. I live in Davie and I want to volunteer there just because I admire her work so much.

I will try to call again on Monday and let you know what I find out.

Here is the phone # & the little blurp from the internet about her new institute in case you want to try and make an appointment now:

"Klimas, who is joining NSU from the University of Miami (UM), was the principal investigator of the National Institutes of Health’s Center for Multidisciplinary Studies of CFS Pathophysiology at UM, and is currently funded to use genomics to better understand the cause of persistent illness in both CFS/ME and GWI. She plans to expand this work through the new NSU Institute for Neuro Immune Medicine.

For more information, patients can call 954-262-2850."

Thank you skinnybinny for posting that youtube video. It was a real eye opener for me but it left me emotionally drained. I came away with a feeling of hopelessness. What will it take for the CDC and the medical world to take our illness serious!!

I'm sorry - I didn't mean to make you depressed. At least it is listed as a disability unlike FM.

I have never heard of her but I personally started going to "Chronicity" in Denver. I started in Nov of last year and will continue until Nov of this year.
It has helped me a great deal.
I also sought the help of a nutritionist and he helped me DRAMATICALLY. His advice and food regime was very helpful to me.
If you are intersted in knowing more about my journey, feel free to check out my website

This is not to tell YOU how to walk your journey, but how I am walking mine and what has helped me in the last 2 and a half years.
Hugs and much luv to you.

Thanks for all your input. I'm going to have my PCP look into it since referral has to come from him anyway.
