Hi, I am 29 years old and was treated for early symptoms of Lyme in 2011 following a tick bite and significant joint/bone pain. I am experiencing recurring symptoms such as headaches, fatigue, muscle/joint pain and weakness, dizziness, ringing in the ears, etc.
I had one positive IgG (66) on the western blot 2 months ago, but PCP feels it is negative, of course.
Can anyone please recommend a LLMD in NJ? I am close to the PA border as well.
Thank you.

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.
