Looking for a gastroenterologist's second opinion on Gerald's childhood-onset epilepsy

Seeking a second medical opinion on childhood-onset epilepsy; a 20-minute call or written review would help.

Gerald was diagnosed with childhood-onset epilepsy in July. The local team has recommended an experimental drug. We understand it's an important decision, and we'd like to be sure. We're asking if a gastroenterologist - anywhere in the world - would be willing to review Gerald'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. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

    Stay strong, Ivy. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too

          Hope things get better soon. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Thane.

                Hope things get better soon, Ivy. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Quezon City donated after I showed her your page.

                  Sending love, Ivy. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Los Angeles.

                      I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Sent it to 9 people at work!

                        Best of luck. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Wish I lived closer to Angeles so I could bring a meal.
