What type of doctor treats systemic symptoms?
My issues include (but are not limited to) severe scalp eczema, kidney and bladder pressure, intestinal distress. I believe it may be candida or perhaps a food intolerance. I would like to see a doctor that would explore whether or not these issues are all connected.
I would also say an internist or an allergist, but there are things you can do before you see them to relieve some of your discomfort. Plantain(the herb not the banana like thing) and Slipprey Elm in a tea together (go to your local natural health store and they should have both) in an equal ratio of 2 parts (or cups) of water to 2 ounces of herb will help relieve your eczema nicely. Boil, then steep for 1/2 hour and use both externally(as a shampoo/hair treatment over a bowl…soak for 10 minutes) and internally (drink as you would any other tea). I have also found Garlic and Astragalus root extremely effective for urinary tract infections…take as labeled on the bottle.
However, definitely do go see a doctor for testing as you may also be diabetic…it doesn’t happen often, but I have seen these symptoms in diabetic people all together.
I am at windstarhealing.webs.com if you have any other questions…good luck, and be well!

We all do. A human being is a complex organism and all systems are interconnected and dependent upon each other. You probably have several things going on – but the worst thing you can do is attempt to diagnose your own distress. The place to start is with a family physician. If you need to see a specialist, or even more than one specialist, that physician will readily recognize that and will be the most appropriate person to make the referral(s) you need.
