Hi.
My partner has Lyme (9 years before diagnosis; 4 years of treatment). She's done oral abx; then IV; she's now back on orals. She has a lyme friendly doc and a lyme friendly neurologist, but things have been getting worse rather than better.

Anyone have any feedback (positive or negative) on lyme literate neurologists in Mass? Would especially like feedback on Dr. LR.

Thanks.

never heard of him; not on our list.

try this also!

People seeking doctors might be able to get help from their state online information and support group. Nearly 3,400 people belong to state groups. Some of the groups are small but more than 20 of them have 50 or more people and seven have over 100.

To find your state group, go to
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/statenamelyme

Type your state name and lyme as one word, like this -
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/newyorklyme

South Carolina is the only state that needs a hyphen between the statename
and lyme, e.g. http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/southcarolina-lyme

The groups are moderated and you have to apply. Most don't allow doctor names, but once on the group, you can ask for doctors in a certain area and ask people to email you privately.
