A guy that I used to work with was dealing with a horror story scenario around Lyme disease. His wife had it and after going to multiple doctors found one who discovered that it was somehow affecting the pituitary gland. Prior to this his wife was basically in bed, living on pain killers in a constant state of fog and misery.
Once this doctor recommended treatment with human growth hormone, her symptoms dramatically improved, she was able to get off of the pain killers and even was able to drive again. She had her life back.
But then all of the controversy around HGH happened in terms of people abusing it as a steroid and her doctor LOST HER LICENSE for prescribing it to her. Symptoms reversed and she went back to misery and pain killers. They went to doctor after doctor and told them exactly what happened and how much she had improved on the HGH. Showed VIDEO. None of the other doctors would a) believe it or b) prescribe it because of the risk to their own careers.
I cannot imagine what type of hell that must be to KNOW exactly what you need to get relief, to KNOW that it's readily available, but not be able to get it because some agency that you've never had contact with doesn't think you should have it.
