I Have been sick for a 2 long years. 7 years ago I test positive on two bands of a Western Blot test. My recent test came back negative. My digestive system is basically non functioning. My health is failing quickly. My body is not absorbing nutrients. Recently I had a endoscopy the doctors found h eplori (spelling sorry) overload. I have constant pain in my stomach and upper and lower GI. I can't find a doctor to take my lyme concerns seriously. I also have anxiety I have never experienced. Any help please.
I am a single mom with three kids one who has autism. Any information would be so helpful. Feel so alone with this and scared.
Thank you so much for any help. blessing to all. jen j

Welcome to Lymenet! PM sent for NH & MA.
So sorry you are going through this. You have come to the right place for help.
You need to be evaluated and treated by a Lyme-literate doctor (LLMD). Non LLMDs have no clue about this horrible disease or its complex treatment!
They are far and few between, unfortunately. You need to go where they are.
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":
Read www.thehumansideoflyme.net written by a now-retired Lyme-literate psychiatrist. Lyme certainly can cause all sorts of problems.
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 neurological problems from Lyme. Thanks.
