I am in need of a "LymeEducated" Dr for my 11 year old son. Preferably in the Capital Region (Albany etc.) or Hudson Valley (Poughkeepsie etc) areas. Thank you do much in advance

Welcome to Lymenet! PM sent for upstate NY.
Your dear son needs 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.
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":

Thank you so much for your advice and recommendations. He has had positive tests since last year around this time. Doxy doesn't seem to be working and I am seeing more and more symptoms and affects come out. I know we are in for a long fight. Just need to find a good Dr. I hate to see him suffer anymore.
