Hi
Just wanted to give a quick update. My daughter is still doing fabulously on the Diamox. Her headache is gone and she is able to be so much more active than she was before.

We had a follow up appt with the PA who prescribed the Diamox for us – he gave us both high 5’s and was so happy for our success.

I did want to share one thing he said because it made me smile and I thought I needed to share it with Dr. D.

He said ‘Gosh, I bet the lady who came up with this theory has taken a lot of criticism, hasn’t she?’ When I said ‘yes, there has been some criticism and resistance’, he replied, ‘Well, look at Dr. Heimlich. Everybody criticized him but look at how many lives he saved because he stuck with it.’ So, he sort of compared Dr. Diana to Dr. Heimlich and I liked that a lot – because she has been a lifesaver to us!

Thank you for telling me this, Sweetie. You made my day… Please give the PA a high 5 and a hug for me, too, OK? Heck, for ALL of us! 🙂

“Dr. Diana will always hold a very special place in my heart for her selfless devotion to helping everyone, not just the Ehlers-Danlos community. I hate to think what my life would be without her insight and guidance.”
