Searching for new MD in Northeast or Southern PA after being told by my current LLMD that I "have too many neurological conditions" for her to treat. +Lyme, +Bartonella by all criteria. Receiving IVIG for CIDP. Am home bound but able to travel with preplanning. Any ideas are welcome! Thanks.

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!
They are far and few between, unfortunately. You need to go where they are.
Also most LLMDs do not accept insurance due to the politics surrounding this horrible disease. Read poster TF's explanation, "Why Lyme Doctors Don't Take Insurance":
When calling for an appointment, ask if they have any cancellations or a waiting list. Patients have been able to get in sooner to see a LLMD by doing this.
