With Solace, you get both a patient advocate and a supporting physician, which we refer to as your “care team”.
Your advocate will be there to manage the day to day aspects of your care: coordinating with doctors, researching potential solutions and communicating updates to you.
Your supporting physician can unlock resources for you and your advocate that might otherwise be out of reach.
MCAS diagnosis requires specific tests often done incorrectly, leading to false negatives and continued suffering. Solace advocates ensure proper tryptase and histamine testing, coordinate 24-hour urine collections done correctly, and document clinical responses to treatment. They find labs familiar with MCAS testing, ensure samples are handled properly, and build diagnostic evidence over time. Your advocate helps prove your condition is real when tests are tricky.
MCAS often causes reactions to medications, foods, scents, and environmental triggers requiring careful management. Solace advocates help identify safe medication formulations, coordinate with compounding pharmacies for custom preparations, and document successful and failed treatments. They help navigate hospital stays with chemical sensitivities, coordinate safe dental and medical procedures, and ensure providers understand your sensitivities. Your advocate helps you navigate a world full of triggers.
MCAS can cause anaphylaxis and severe reactions requiring emergency treatment from providers unfamiliar with the condition. Solace advocates create detailed emergency protocols for ER visits, ensure you have proper documentation for emergency providers, and coordinate with hospitals about MCAS-safe medications. They help establish care plans with local emergency departments, ensure epinephrine is always available, and educate emergency providers about MCAS. Your advocate prepares emergency care for your unique needs.
Living with MCAS requires coordinated strategies for medications, diet, environment, and stress management. Solace advocates connect you with MCAS-aware nutritionists, help create safe food and medication lists, and coordinate stress reduction support. They track patterns between triggers and symptoms, adjust protocols based on your responses, and ensure all providers understand your sensitivities. Your advocate creates personalized management strategies for living with MCAS.
