Hi everyone! I'm 18 years old and have been having Lyme-like symptoms for over four months now. My ELISA tests was negative, and I'm getting incredibly tired of getting sent to doctors who pick out one of the many symptoms I have and try giving me a diagnoses (Anxiety, etc) I live closer to New Bedford, MA but can probably travel to Providence, RI if I need to. thank you!

Welcome to Lymenet! PM sent for MA. 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. Fyi - the ELISA test is very unreliable (about 38-50%). Testing needs to be done through IGeneX Labs in Palo Alto, CA. Check the online state Lyme groups at:http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/massachusettslyme Maybe they can help. Another resource:www.lyme-aware.org/massachusetts.html The top LLMD, Dr. H, has written a new book entitled, "Why Can't I Get Better?". It is an excellent source of information. Also read "Cure Unknown" by Pamela Weintraub. Check your local library or buy it used on Amazon. View "Under Our Skin" for free on www.hulu.com
