Your Question: I am a 38 year old woman that has been suffering terrible chronic fatigue since I was about 13. I would fall asleep in class and sleep all day while my friends were out having fun. When I was in high school I also started to get terrible headaches and lower back and hip pain. I was very athletic but spent every available moment sleeping but never feeling at all rested. I had what I believe was a stomache virus for about 2 weeks when I was in my early 20’s with severe diahrea and vomiting. I lost 15 lbs when I was bareley 100 lbs to begin with. Shortly after, I started to get cystic acne along the jaw and chin area and chronic diahrea every time I would eat. I found out last year that it was probably due to elevated dhea levels which were(1200). I had hirtuism and severe pms but never had any miscarriages or trouble getting pregnant, I have 2 children. The doctors still diagnosed me with PCOS. I also have low IgG and hypothyroidism(elevated reverse T3). I am taking Yazmin and Spirinolactone for the hormones and also Iodine, Vit D, Cortisol, and T3. I’ve been doing this for months and I don’t feel any better than before I started the treatment. I tried Progesterone but the acne got much worse. The doctors gave me muscle relaxers and ambien to help me sleep and pain pills for the pain but even the strongest pain pills have no affect on me whatsoever. Lateley I’ve been getting an itchy rash on my body that takes on a circular shape and is very red and dry. I’m paying an arm and leg for the doctor visits and meds but nothing is working at all. Do you think my doctor could be missing something? I have elevated hemoglobin and protein C in my blood but the doctor does not think it is relevant. I am now taking DMSA after having silver fillings removed thinking everything could have been due to mercury toxicity. That does not seem to be helping either. I don’t know where to go from here. Please help!!
Answer: Do I think that your doctor might be missing something? Well, yes, I think I do! Your symptoms sound incredibly consistent with a poster child for hormone imbalance and/or, hormone allergy. It’s pretty graphic. Unfortunately, traditional physicians are only trained to look for, diagnose and treat disease. They are not taught to look for imbalances, and truthfully, too many of them don’t even believe in allergies, either. What we call the symptoms of hormone imbalance, they see as an incurable autoimmune disease, and treat the patients, sometimes for decades for a disease that doesn’t really exist. We just test, treat and fix. It’s actually a good diagnosis. Easy to recognize, just as easy to treat. Let me know if you have more questions after you have finished your reading.
Would you be able, or want to come here for testing and treatment? I am very confident that we can help you. Quite a lot. According to Texas law, the first visit would have to be here in one of our clinics. Texas doctors are prohibited from diagnosing, treating or prescribing for anyone whom they have not seen first, in person. After the first visit, almost anything that comes up, such as, adjusting the dosage, making changes, or questions about the treatment, can be done by phone or email.
We offer a money back, satisfaction guarantee to all patients. If you decide to come for a visit, and we, collectively decide that we cannot help you, there is no charge for the visit. If you decide to become a patient, follow the protocol, and after a time, conclude that you aren’t achieving the desired results, just let us know and we will refund any money that you have paid to us.
We accept almost all healthcare plans, including MCare, MCaid, and Military. We exclude Humana.
While you are thinking about it, please go back to the website: www.robyinstitute.com, and take the free download of the first chapter of Dr. Roby’s new book, “Maybe It Is All In Your Head … And You Are NOT Crazy!”. It will give you tremendous insight to the world of hormones in general, and personal insight to your own body functions at the same time; your hormonal world in particular.
Let me know after you have finished your reading. It is a well written book, for patients, not their doctors, which makes so much sense. Hope you like it. Now, let’s get you back to being the person that you really are.
Thank you for sharing a part of your life with us.
