I have been receiving much of what I need from all the input I am receiving in this thread I began. I believe it will al be a huge help in the letter I construct.

Jonsi, this letter I am going to write is not going to be to an MD. It is for University Of Wisconsin Professors where they have Clinical Microbiology Depts.. It is going to take more than one sitting, possibly more than a week or month to construe this letter because I want it to be as perfect as possible. That is why everyone who is giving me information is contributing to my letter.

I believe I can construct it in a manner which will have impact. I realize whether MD's believe in this "M" or not, they do not have the tools and resources neccessary to do anything about "M". However, I will say that at least my D.O. has ordered the neccessary things to do his own testing and have them sent off to labs. He is going to begin soon and I believe at my next appt. at the end of this month he will have everything in order.

I think I have mentioned before that he does not work for anyone. He is totally self-employed and this I have found is a HUGE difference in Drs. He has no "higher uppers" in a clinical setting to answer to. He is his own boss and does not have to depend upon colleagues for his year end bonus or raise.

I do not know if this letter I am going to write will do any good but I KNOW it won't if I don't write one and certainly won't if I do not ask for God's help.

So, with that said, keep any info coming. If anything comes of my most sincere letter, I will respectfully give credit to where I have learned what I have learned. This is impossible to do now. Only until/if I do draw the attention of one of the Universities within 10 mies of me would I be able to introduce them to MDR. We all know how it would be misconstrued now; if I even mentioned "forum", simply because one can not believe eveything they read on the net. However, there are us who know how to decipher the difference.
