So got back from my appt this afternoon.  I could certainly tell why this guy was the "top dog".  I think my 40 min appointment went on for almost 2 hours.  He went through all my medical records, pictures i had, symptom list, my whole story.  everything.  Anyway, he was a hematologist, and i was really sent to be evaluated for the porphyria (yeah my doctors still think that was it).  and as suspected it isnt.  He couldnt think of any blood disorders that could cause anything of mine. 

Ive been advised to see a neurologist and a nephrologist.  maybe go back and see an endocrine too.

also, interesting thing he noted from my lab work is I definately had mono. I did not know that.  I think that explains the super lethargy i had in the very beginning.

maybe mono triggered something?
