I sent you a name.
Lyme doctors are few and far between. Many states don't have a single lyme doctor. Certainly most cities do not have any. Many people have to fly to see their lyme doctor and at least half of all lyme patients go out of state for their treatment.
When you say "he found 4 markers for lyme" what exactly do you mean? Do you have the lyme test results? If so, can you post what bands were positive on the Western Blot?
Was his overall Western Blot positive by Igenex?

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!
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 - I know you are new to Lymenet, but please break up your posts into 2-3 sentence paragraphs, as there are people on Lymenet who cannot read large blocks of text due to neurological problems from Lyme.
To do that, click the pencil/paper icon, make your changes, then click "Edit Post". Thanks.
