I currently live near Charlotte, NC and I am searching for the best Dr. that ideally would have traditional training but utilizes natural practices also.
I tested positive for Lymes, Rocky Mtn Spotted Fever, and Adrenal Fatigue earlier this year after 18 months of symptoms. My 2 blood test after a round of antibiotics came back still showing positive for both Lymes and Rocky Mtn.
Any referrals would be greatly appreciated as I have tired of calling up every insurance and dr. referral to be told.... sorry we don't treat lymes. I am also open to traveling to find the best.
I do know that Dr. J formerly of NC still practices near where I live but that would be a huge out of pocket expense. I have considered using this Dr. but a part of me is leery to do so with all the controversy surrounding - please pm me if you can give me any recomendations or opinions on this Dr's treatments.
Thanks for all your help K
