Hi,

It's been almost 3 months since being diagnosed. I find myself
alternating between feeling hopeful that maybe I can improve or
feeling hopeless and wanting to give up.

I've been doing acupuncture and chinese herbs for the past 4 months
and the only thing that has improved is my sleep. Everything else has
actually become worse.

At this point I'm pretty much housebound. It's very discouraging.

I've decided to see someone who specializes in cfid's.

I have 2 names and was wondering if anybody has heard or seen either
one of these people: Gordan and Associates or Dr. Lois Johnson.

Cost is a huge issue for me. Neither one takes insurance and I'm part
of an HMO that is designed for healthy people.

I was also wondering if there are any treatments/supplements that
anybody has tried with some success?

Thanks-

Terri
