Dear Doctor Rodney Ford
This is to give you heart felt thanks for diagnosing and treatment for Elinor’s gluten allergy – causing a very bad acne-like skin condition and chronic severe sleep deprivation.
Elinor’s skin is virtually free of skin eruptions (she just has the scars) and she is no longer sleep deprived (with the help of the Melatonin). We all shudder to think what would have happened if you had not diagnosed and treated her. (Elinor has gone from bottom of her maths class to top in the last test last year and is now in one of two top maths classes). ....
..... She says she thinks she was heading for a break down – physical, because she was so tired and couldn’t think straight because of the lack of sleep. Her skin was also very distressing … we were all in survival mode. We knew something was wrong but couldn’t put our finger on it!’ We feel very much for others who haven’t had the luck to be diagnosed and are still struggling with severe gluten allergies. Yours sincerely Janice Antill, Julian Young and Elinor Antill. |
