HOW TO CURE YOUR ALLERGIES: APPROACHING THE DOCTOR
Medicine is a service industry. You, as a consumer, have the right to get the service you request and pay for. This should be your attitude when you approach your doctor. On your first visit tell your doctor:
• that you want to try a new approach in the treatment of your allergies and that you are on the Metabolism-Balancing Program;
• that you will be starting the Anti-Candida Program shortly and you want Nystatin powder;
• that you want to be referred to a competent, allergist who does accurate work and who will, if required, mix up a desensitising vaccine to be taken orally.
If he/she does not agree to help, go to another doctor who is open-minded and willing to help you try a new approach. Shopping for a good doctor is no different to shopping around for a good plumber or painter. Unfortunately, some people seem to think they have no consumer rights in matters pertaining to doctors and must accept everything that is meted out to them. This is not so. Just as the plumber and painter are expected to provide the service requested, so is the doctor. Don’t be intimidated. It is your health and it is your responsibility to take care of it Experience has taught, me that this assertive approach invariably ensures you find the type of doctor and the help you arc looking for.
It is preferable that you consult a doctor who is familiar with the practice of clinical ecology. Many doctors are unfamiliar with this new science and will tell you that, allergies have nothing to do with your symptoms. Don’t fall for this one, but if your doctor wants to run additional tests, by all means go along with him/her. If you have not sought treatment for your symptoms, it is wise to let your doctor treat, you conventionally at first. Remember, although allergy is the greatest mimicker of disease, there could well be some other reason for your condition.
