I am seeking a Lyme Doctor in the St.Paul, Minnesota or Western Wisconsin area, or a holistic practitioner.

Just be sure any holistic practitioner is also ILADS-educated or an ILADS-member. Many LL NDs (naturopathic doctors) are members of ILADS and some have gone through the physical training programs.

Some NDs think they know about lyme, if not ILADS, forget it. Now, that does not mean they may not have their own methods but if they are not ILADS-educated they will not have the science about lyme. It is not at all like anything else they've encountered. Just getting the body stronger is not nearly enough. Some LL NDs also incorporate antibiotics.

You might call your area support groups for leads.
