I have severe chronic Lyme and other Tick Borne Infectious Diseases from a tick bite over 2 years ago. In addition, I am CVID with a severely weakened compromised immune system. I need a doctor would will prescribe long-term antibiotics and maybe IV. But I do not test positive for Lyme due to my weakened Immune System but without antibiotics, I suffer severe pain and arthritis, and neurological effects, where I become totally disabled physically and mentally. Please help me as I am suffering severely and need a kind compassionate caring Lyme Literate Doctor who will prescribe and treat me with much-needed antibiotics.

You need to be evaluated and treated by a Lyme-literate doctor (LLMD). Non LLMDs have no clue about this horrible disease or its complex treatment!
A LLMD is one who has treated Lyme disease and the co-infections which come with it for many years and has gotten patients well. A good one will follow Dr. B's Guidelines, the "gold standard" for Lyme treatment.
Read the books written by the top LLMD, Dr. H titled, "Why Can't I Get Better?" and "How Can I Get Better?". They are an excellent source of information.
Also "Cure Unknown" by Pamela Weintraub. Check your local library or buy it used on Amazon.
Btw - I know you are new to Lymenet, but please break up your posts into 2-3 sentence paragraphs, as there are people on Lymenet who cannot read large blocks of text due to neurological problems from Lyme.
To do this click the pencil/paper icon, make your changes, then click "Edit Post". Thanks.
