So it turns out that my sister also thinks she has lyme. She lives in San Francisco. Any luck with doctors there?
I sent her to this site and got this email from her today:
Yeah, you did tell me about lymenet. As soon as I got the names I put a message asking if anyone had any advice about the doctors emailed to me on there and I got this message in all caps with 3 exclamation points that I had to take their names down and I couldn't deal with it emotionally. I'm stressed to the max and these people exceed my current emotional limitations. I think this is a great resource but not for me, they are definately too overwhelming for me to deal with right now.
I should have told her not to post doctors names so that is my fault (I know it says so on the board but I don't think she noticed that...she is probably overwhelmed and trying to do this at work).
She doesn't know much about lyme and I'm trying to help her but we live on opposite coasts so it's hard.
Please be patient and gentle with people and understand that this is all very overwhelming, especially for someone who is very sick. Thanks for understanding.
