Wow. What a pathetically small list.

I am in big trouble, like so many of us, having gone through a major crash that does not seem to be letting up. and I have no doctor now and no where to turn to.

I was very fortunate in the past to be one of the few Canadians to have seen both Dr.Alison Bested when she worked at The Women's College Hospital in Toronto and then Dr.Bryon Hyde, here in my hometown of Ottawa. Dr Bested no longer works at the Environmental Clinic and I believe might now be in private practice in Toronto. As for Dr. Hyde, he did everything he could for me, ordering a multitude of tests and referrals to specialists to rule out all sorts of diseases, and now here I am with confirmed ME/CFS and no one who can help.

Does anyone out there know of any other doctor, naturopath, physiotherapist, etc in Ottawa who has any knowledge of ME/CFS, however small ? I now have a new GP who knows zippo about it and I don't have the energy or mental ability to teach her.

Yes, it's a very short list, unfortunately. But it is not complete; these are just the ones I know about. By the way, if you are interested in joining a Canadian ME & CFS Facebook support group, please go to: https://www.facebook.com/groups/328175370869025/
