Doctors, could you help? Gustavo's juvenile arthritis
An orthopedic surgeon willing to review Gustavo's reports could help the family decide on treatment for juvenile arthritis.
Anywhere in the world1,525 views
Gustavo was diagnosed with juvenile arthritis in June. The local team has recommended a long course of medication. We understand it's an important decision, and we'd like to be sure.
We're asking if an orthopedic surgeon - anywhere in the world - would be willing to review Gustavo's reports and give a short opinion (a call of 20 minutes or a written summary). We'd gladly pay for any cost to your practice that we can afford.
We have scans, lab reports and the doctor's notes ready to share securely. We understand that you can't give formal medical advice without an examination, and we're simply looking for guidance on questions to ask and options to explore.
Thanks for even thinking about it.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
