This morning, in reflecting back on this past summer, I realize that my visits to a “functional medicine” physician were “much ado about nothing.”

He was highly recommended by a medical consultant who, in turn, was recommended by a friend. I thought this doctor would be the medical panacea I had been searching for and that he advertised. Turned out this was not the case, not by a long shot. Tracing back to the original referral, I realize that this friend, in observing her various medical treatments over the years, was no where close to an expert in getting and receiving really good medical support. Bless her heart, and my miscalculation. And, perhaps there is no one cure-all.
