Hi,

A family member is severely suffering from Lyme Disease and doesn't have the most wonderful insurance (medi-cal). This is all new to me I and don't really know where to start researching this.

We keep running into doctors who don't really know anything about the disease and keep prescribing the wrong medications to her.

Please email me if you know of a doctor who is knowledgeable in the disease and perhaps accepts medi-cal.

Thank you!
