I’m so sorry to hear about your daughter’s suffering. 🙁 I truly believe that we can peel back the layers of what is happening to us without needing to resort to suspicions of “new bugs” (did you see the chapter in my book about this? I hope it is hugely helpful to you and your daughter). Because my kids and I developed a similar presentation as your daughter, yet we could be confident that we were “triggered” by mainstream viruses (and I developed a huge reaction from a “regular old bacterial infection”), my research stayed in the confines of mainstream medicine. We presented as a chronic Lyme patient, for example, yet we knew our triggers were not Lyme. Instead, we looked at what traditional testing was missing, and why it was getting missed. High intracranial pressure, without papilledema (the “regular” presentation) was our first finding. 😉 I agree with Dr. Fry that there is no point in having a venous procedure because the problems will return (and we face the likelihood of fibrosis and the risk of thrombosis), but I do NOT believe the reason is because of a protozoa that no one else can identify. This came up previously on this thread: http://prettyill.com/forums/viewthread/458 I hope The Driscoll Theory book helps your daughter get started on the right track. Much more coming soon. Big, big hug, Dr. D
