Seeking FL LLMD for a 16 y.o living with chronic joint pain that several doctors have been unable to find a cause for.

Thanks!

Welcome to Lymenet! PM sent for FL.

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

When you call for an appointment, ask if they have cancellations or a waiting list. Patients have been able to get in sooner by doing this.

Check the online state Lyme groups at:

Maybe they can help you.

Another resource for you:

Dr. H, the top Lyme doctor, 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.
