Hi, just joined this site. Been suffering from Lyme and related issues for over 10 years. Have been seeing an LLMD in CT since 2005. He's helped me get to about 80% better, but I think I need to look for Dr's that can help me go further. Never been treated for co-infections,which I think is an issue. Current Dr thinks I have residual auto-immune issues and this is as good as I can get. Just not ready to accept that when I haven't tried too many other protocol's. I"m currently reading Bryan Rosner's new book, Freedom From Lyme Disease, and would like to try some of the protocols in his book with the help of an LLMD.
Thanks in advance
Chris

Welcome to Lymenet! I already sent you a PM for CT in your previous post.
It is very important that co-infections be treated.
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!
Unfortunately, LLMDs are far and few between. You need to go where they are.
Also, most LLMDs do not accept insurance due to the politics surrounding this horrible disease. Read poster TF's explanation, "Why Lyme Doctors Don't Take Insurance":
Btw - please break up your posts into 2-3 sentence paragraphs, as there are people on Lymenet who cannot read large blocks of text due to neurological problems from Lyme. Thanks.
