Looking for a rheumatologist's second opinion on Themba's persistent abdominal pain

A rheumatologist willing to review Themba's reports could help the family decide on treatment for persistent abdominal pain.

Themba was diagnosed with persistent abdominal pain in March. 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 a rheumatologist - anywhere in the world - would be willing to review Themba'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. Thank you for reading my story.

    Sending love, Nokuthula. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Geelong donated after I showed her your page. God bless

      I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Put this on a community board in Mumbai this morning. All the best.

      • Mim Fatema Miah

        Wishing you the best. Get well soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.

          Hang in there. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Wish I lived closer to Paris so I could bring a meal!

              It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Prayagraj this morning.
