Hello C.,

I had responded to you're other ad request for a PCP, but I wanted to tell you about a service your daughter my qualify for. It's called AzEIP (Arizona Early Intervention Program). They help children birth to 3 years old with resources to catch your child up to speed, or provide services to you to help with special needs.

I don't know for sure, but your daughters MS services may be covered by government funds if insurance won't take care of it. My son is using this program (it's a godsind) since insurance won't cover the therapist we need for him. Best of all is the fact that the providers are home-based so which is wonderful with a baby (and cost of gas).

I'm not sure if this is the number of the correct person to give you more help, but you could start here.

I hope this information is helpful. Best of luck.

My mother has MS and has dealt with this. Feel free to contact her via email ____@____.com She has great doctors that took her a long time to find. I'll let her know that I've passed this on to you.

I think I just responded to your other message, but AZ VIsta Family Medicine also works with MS patients (according to the PA) and refers to Pain Man. Clinics when necessary. Just FYI. Again, number is ###-###-####
Good luck!

Hi C.,

I have a couple pain management centers on my web site (www.HealthyHabitsWellnessCenter.com). However, I highly recommend going to the Envita Center (www.Envita.com). They are an integrative medical clinic that specializes in chronic disease.

MS is an inflammatory disease. It would be advantageous for your family member to reduce/eliminate all inflammatory foods (like wheat and dairy). The less inflammation, the less pain she will have. She should also remove all in-home toxins that are suppressing her immune system. I am a Health and Nutritional Counselor and would be happy to meet with her if she would like help with this.

Warm Regards,
