Dear Dr. Maitland, thank you so much for another highly informative session here! You mentioned in your Q&A session that you might be able to point patients in the right direction for someone to help with severe mast cell issues locally…my wife has MCAS, EDS3 and POTS, and we live in Orange County, California. (She also has a recent dx of Dercum’s Disease and Lymphedema). If you have a couple of referrals we could consider for help with MCAS, we would greatly appreciate it…thank you so much!
Thank you so much for this webinar: I think MCAS explains so much of what is going wrong with me – next to my hypermobility type EDS, and my family (daughter, sister, nephew)! We all live in Europe, so we can sadly not come to see you. Do you know of any good practitioners – knowledgeable in MCAS (in conjunction with EDS or not) in Europe (preferably The Netherlands, Austria and the UK), who could help us out?
We all appreciate your help, and all the wonderful work you do!
