doctors for treating Lupus in or near Scottsdale
Posted 09-28-2009 at 08:22 PM by sunpeople2
I just moved to Scottsdale, was recently diagnosed with SLE(Lupus) they think brought on by the use of an antibiotic called Levaquin.
I am looking for rheumatologists specializing in the treatment of Lupus & who also know about the dangers of Levaquin as it causes tendon tears and ruptures, among other things.
Will need someone who also accepts the Arizona ahcccs(Medicaid) if I get on this or payment plans.
Thanks and also if anyone knows of any good Disability attorneys in the area that would be great.

Have you also posted on the LFA Forum? If not you may find contacts there.
LFA stands for Lupus Foundation of America which you can google. If you haven't already registered, and then do so, you will see that there are several categories, one of which has to do with disability insurances, medicaid, SSI and so forth.
Other categories can lead you to rheumys, neurologists, and doctors who are familiar with SLE.
Hope this helps. --YokiePosted 09-21-2011 at 10:36 AM by Yokie -
Dear Sunpeople2:
I searched lupus on the blogs but found nothing. It may be more helpful to you to post your question under "New Posts" where it will be more easily seen. --YokiePosted 09-21-2011 at 10:49 AM by Yokie
