Dr. Hendler or Kathy,


My doctors are questioning auto immune disease /lupus / fibromyalgia . I would like to know the 'right' tests that should be done to diagnose these. Is there anything that you can tell me about these so that I can make sure my doctors are on the right track and doing everything possible? Also to help properly document and relate this damage to the electrical injury. It is a work comp case and they are claiming that electricity does not cause any damage and therefore denying any responsibilty for my symptoms.

Kelly,

I am very sorry to hear that they are denying the validity of your injury. The best recommendation that I can make is to have Dr. Hendler review your medical records. From there he can make recommendations about the any additional testing and treatment that might be helpful. We have a group of ladies here at Mensana that specialize in helping to get insurance to authorize payment for treatment.

Thanks,
Kathy
