How likely are you to recommend Dr. Germin?
I am afflicted with an extremely uncommon syndrome called Dercum's Disease (also described as "Adiposis Dolorosa", which literally means 'Painful Fat') which is constantly agonizing, and progressively debilitating. This fat develops as nodular tumors of intractable fat, which is non-responsive to weight loss. As a result, I am covered with hard, growing tumors throughout my trunk and arms, as well as along my spine, causing neuropathic pain and weakness. It's such an obscure disease that most doctors are completely unfamiliar with it, and even when I've explicitly sent links to medical references to the physician's attention, they seldom have bothered to investigate, and upon meeting with me, most literally discounting my symptoms as unimaginable, and therefore, unreal. Dr. Germin, on the other hand, was interested and intrigued, sending me immediately for necessary testing, and engaging other specialist colleagues to help strategize a surgical plan to resolve my plight! :) <3
