Helping my Mother look for a Dr in Michigan, preferably as northern Michigan as possible, who is Lyme familiar.
My Mother was bitten by a tick, now going on 4 years ago, and developed a bulls eye rash. At the time she believed that if symptoms didn't accompany the rash, she was fine. Since that time her health has progressively declined. She has had a Lyme test which resulted negative almost two years ago. I am looking for someone who is familiar with progressed Lyme's and possible false negatives.

Your dear Mom 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!
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.
Btw - please break up your posts into 2-3 sentence paragraphs, as there are people on Lymenet who cannot read large blocks of text due tot neurological problems from Lyme.
