Am having a major relapse after 10+ years of feeling pretty good, only minor hiccups along the way. My previous LLMD from the Tampa area, bless his heart, retired. Looking for a new doc. Thanks everybody.

Did you see Dr. C? I just had my first relaps after 8 years since treatment with him. Living in Denver now. Hope you find a good new doc!

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!
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.
Unfortunately, LLMDs are far and few between. 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":
