We have moved from MA. In 2010 my wife was treated for Lyme and recovered from issues she recovered from the symptoms she was having. She is once again having similar symptoms. I need to find a doctor in our new area so we can get her tested and see if treatment once again makes sense.
Thanks, David

Hey there in lovely Lynchburg!
From the James River to the Blue Ridge Mountains, it is so amazing!
Sorry to hear your wife is having symptoms reappear and I hope she gets the under control as soon as possible. Spring is on the way.
To find a Lyme treating professional in your state or any state please go to...
Your wife 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.
Unfortunately, LLMDs are far and few between. She needs 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":
Read the books written by the top LLMD, Dr. H, titled, "Why Can't I Get Better?" and his new one, "How Can I Get Better?". They are an excellent source of information.
Read "Cure Unknown" by Pamela Weintraub. Get it at your local library or buy it used on Amazon.
