I am 24 years old and been tested positive for Lyme in 2005 when I could not even walk or move my head. Since then I have been through 3 courses of Doccyclin and had many relapses. Right now I am confused and have loss of memory, fatigue and need to find a doctor.

Welcome to Lymenet! PM sent for NH (I don't know of any in Maine).

You need to be evaluated and treated by a Lyme-literate doctor (LLMD). Non LLMDs have no clue about this horrible disease and its complex treatment!

Check the online state Lyme groups at:
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/mainelyme

Maybe they can help.

Some more resources for you:
www.lyme-aware.org/maine.html

The top LLMD, Dr. H, has written a new book entitled, "Why Can't I Get Better?". It is an excellent source of information.

Also read "Cure Unknown" by Pamela Weintraub. Check your local library or buy it used on Amazon.
