Dr Fumo and his team are amazing. I am hesitant to rate "proposed treatments" as this health crisis is still not completely solved since onset of symptoms in April 2024. I believe that Dr Fumo and my other providers are trying to figure it out. It's just the complexity of my case does not check a perfect box, despite declining quality of life, and now deep financial debt and housing crisis. I still don't know how to move forward and struggle everyday. I'm just praying hard this all works itself out sooner than later.
