This is an urgent need.

Does anyone know of a Lyme Sympathetic/Literate MD in NY, NJ, or CT who is good with treating Neurally Mediated Hypotension/POTS? Perhaps Lyme Sympathetic isn't necessary, but would be very helpful.

If they are also good with thyroid and adrenal, that would be great, but not essential. Usually, I think, it is cardiologists who deal with the NMH/POTS, but not always.

PA is also possible, although much farther.

I know that there are drs listed on DINET.org, but I would prefer a personal recommendation(s). Thank you!

Sent you a message Rumigirl. Not sure what POTS is though.

Thank you! POTS is Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia syndrome---sorry to not explain. When the blood pressure doesn't rise, as it should, when you go from lying down to sitting or standing, the heart rate can increase in order to increase the blood pressure.
