Anyone know someone who is seeing Dr J? It would be good to know what kind of treatment he is using especially if he is only working with iv antibiotics. They are very pricy.
Holy crap, I just called Dr. J's clinic this morning and the new Administrative Manager was like "We just had a spot
open up for November 17th" so I was like "UHH YES PLEASE!!!
".
I literally can not believe my luck, I was under the impression I'd be stuck on some kind of waiting list for
months based on some of the older posts I've found on the web. Just so I could see my other options, there was another Nov 20 appt available and a Dec 9 appointment too but I think those will get snagged by end of business today.
I also asked her about
the IV antibiotic treatments and she said what I heard was definitely not true. Only 15% of the patients at the clinic are good candidates for IV abx and to not worry about
it. I read on their site that IV is only reserved for "when advanced CNS involvement or neurological disease is present" & for patients who don't show any progress or herxs after 12-16 months of oral abx. If you want to learn more about
his protocol, look here: http://jemsekspecialty.com/jemsek-specialty-clinic-treatment-protocol/
The initial appointment is $750 with a ~$450(?) down payment. Lol sorry y'all the $750 sticker shock made me totally tune out the down payment amount, I was like
She told me to expect the appointment to be 2.5-3 hours long. I will let you guys know how things go.
