Has anyone on here gone to Dr. Jerry Molitor who is at Vrigina Mason in
Seattle Washington?
I have been asked to go for a second opinion and that was a name that was
brought up to me.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Becky,
I'm just de-lurking ...haven't even introduced myself yet! B U T, I'm
kind of a neighbor, lol, just live up North a coupla hrs. & I have to
drive to Sea. just to have my dang pain treated right!

(On topic more...) Thank goodness you're goin' to Virg. Mason cuz the
UW Rhuematologist dept. IS THE WORST EVER!!! When I interview drs.
(specialists) I ask if they trained at the University of Wa. rhuemy
dept. cuz I won't see 'em if so!!! Everyone I've talked w/who has
dealt w/the UW docs (only in the rhuemy...there are some other GREAT
depts!), have shared the same experience.

Sorry I haven't seen the doc U R goin' to but I'll ask around. I did
have a terrible experience w/a rhuemy in Bellevue...Dr.Susan Romanick!
She didn't have a clue about FMS & she (gasp!) doesn't believe in CMP
(Chronic Myofascial Pain Disease...yep, that one is a "disease" donned
that by RHUEMY's!!!!). She didn't think it was separate & said "it's
JUST FMS"!!! Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! She was supposed to be a
"compassionate & good" doc according to someone online. O, & she
doesn't believe in treating pain/fm/cmp/etc. w/narcotics of course!
Thank god the thing I went to her for was a dx in Lupus, which
thankfully was negative. S t a y F A R AWAY from her!!!
Best of luck,
Kindly,
LoriB.o.B.
(LOL, sorry for my emotional writing style! I just remembered where I
was...here not in my reg. amf group! ...lurkin' again...)
