Re: TMAU Testing at the Mayo Clinic & your medical doctor's visit

Mpdela,

Yes, I think you're right. The first time I went to see him about this I felt as though he kind of rushed me out the door. He's a very nice person but he probably knew what we were up against before having the Mayo clinic information.  He wanted to send a blood sample also but I told him I didn' t think they would accept it.

My doctor didn't say if he smelled the odor. I wanted to ask him but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. I figured he did smell it or he wouldn't have ordered the test.  He did tell me he would prescribe the antibiotics 2-3 times a year if I needed it. I was so happy to finally get some kind of treatment for this disorder I almost started crying and that happens very rarely.

I feel like I owe you so much more than a thank you. I hope you and your husband had a wonderful time at the beach, that sounds so relaxing.
