Has anyone been treated for FMD in the U.K. by Dr. Mark Edwards? If yes, was it inpatient or outpatient? Did you find the treatment effective? How long were you in treatment?

Thanks!

Hi,I've been a patient of Prof Edwards for about 8 years. He is the most knowledgeable, empathetic and thoughtful doctor I have ever seen (and I have seen many!). Sadly inpatient treatment is contraindicated for me because I have multiple issues. We have tried many things over the years, but my body has never responded positively. Despite this, he has never given up on me. I trust him, and know that he is constantly on top of the latest research etc so as soon as there is anything new to try he will know and make it happen for me.

I hope he is able to help you 🤞
