Does anyone know of any doctors in Texas that are both LLMDs and Endicrinologists?
I'm in Houston but I'm willing to travel to any part of the country if the doctor is worth it. I'm dealing with severe connective tissue loss and muscle loss.
It is VERY alarming and sometimes I feel my life is on a thread because of it.
I take 4 mg of medrol per day and have been doing so for the past 3 years now. I was taking thyroid medication and that was helping to counter the muscle loss somehow.
But for some odd reason I can no longer tolerate thyroid medication because of anxiety and shortness of breath. I would also get vertigo with the thyroid med so I had to stop this past December. Due to this, I am in a rush to find a solution to stop the steroid or perhaps troubleshoot the muscle wasting.
Again, I'm looking for an LLMD that is an Endo, thank you so much

Have you tried contacting ILADS? I think that is probably your best option, through a phone call. I don't know of any that specialize in Endo.

What a dream to have an LLMD endo specialist. Do report back if you find someone, please!
