I have been told by my LLMD that I may need to see a Lyme Rheumatologist.
Does anyone know of one they can refer that's either in Texas or a surrounding state?
My LLMD knows of one in New Jersey but I am unable to travel there due to my medical disability.

Betty, thank you, I will give the Texas site a try. The LLMD gave me an 800# to call but with all the newbie paperwork he gave me I somehow misplaced the phone number.
I couldn't understand the need for a lyme rheumatologist if I have lyme. I thought the RA symptoms were part of lyme and would improve with ABX treatment. I am trying to reduce some of my doctors, not add more.
The LLMD's office assistant called today and left a message that my brain MRI was negative. Good news there.
