I notice you're from GA. Do you know any good Rhuemys out towards Athens Area?

I'm looking for a second opinion.

Applevenus,

I have a couple of questions for you, I see you have MCS, so do I. My fiance and I will be traveling to southern florida to look at homes for sale sometime soon.

My questions are:

I've heard a person has to use some kind of pest control down south in your home. Do you do so and does the pesticide work make you feel ill?

My fiance and I will be renting a home for a month while we're down there. Do you know if there's a way to locate a comfortable home for rent where strong chemicals were not used?

Thanks!

My rheumy is in Snellville. She is "o-k" at best. She isn't up on latest research. She pities me and mainly wants to treat with drugs. I'm probably not going back and I think I will stick with a good internal medicine doc. There aren't very many rheumy docs here unless you are willing to drive to Atlanta. Emory doctors are good I hear.

To the pesticide question. I had Terminix spraying the perimeter of my house. Stopped a few months ago. I haven't seen improvement in my symptoms.
I think you'd be more bothered by the normal environmental allergens Like ragweed etc...boy we have a lot of blooming, pollinating stuff.
