I'm in need of an LLMD that uses both antibiotic and natural methods in the NJ, NY, PA area. I'd prefer to go completely natural, but an open to antibiotics if need be (this is a relapse I am dealing with).
Please PM me any reviews, they are greatly appreciated!

- I hope you get some specific suggestions.
In the meantime, links below should help.
It's important to know that not all states license NDs (some do so with various restrictions). Of the states that do license NDs, only some states also allow NDs to prescribe pharmaceuticals.
(What ILADS is) . . . WHY you need an ILADS-educated, Lyme Literate Doctor
===============================
It's best to consult with an ILADS-educated LL (lyme literate) doctor who has completed four years of post-graduate medical education in the field of herbal and nutritional medicine -
- and someone who is current with ILADS' research & presentations, past and present. -----
Integrative / Holistic M.D., etc. (Be aware that those in this category can have various levels of formal herbal &/or nutritional education, perhaps even just a short course. Do ask first.)
Links to many articles and books by holistic-minded LL doctors of various degrees who all have this basic approach in common:
Understanding of the importance of addressing the infection(s) fully head-on with specific measures;
Knowing that support supplements are important, but NEVER enough alone. And knowing which supplements have direct impact, which are only support and which are both.
You can compare and contrast many approaches.
BASIC HERBAL EDUCATIONAL links, and
BODY WORK links with safety tailored to lyme patients,
RIFE links (you might consider this but be sure to get professional guidance)
BIONIC 880 (& PE-1) links, and
LOW HEAT INFRARED SAUNA detail. -

PM sent for CT.
You might want to click on "Support Groups" in the upper left-hand corner of the Lymenet page, then the states you are looking for. Contact information will come up. Maybe they can help you.
