Hello, I am experiencing a relapse with Lyme after being in remission for a few years. I am looking for a LLMD in the CT or RI area. I am also looking for a Naturapath well versed in Lyme.
It has been difficult to experience these symptoms again. With treatment hopefully they will subside.
I currently have a swollen knee, brain fog, and tingling hands/feet. Thank you so much your your help!

Welcome to Lymenet! PM sent for CT.
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!
A LLMD is one who has treated Lyme disease and the co-infections which come with it for many years and has gotten patients well. A good one will follow Dr. B's Guidelines, the "gold standard" for Lyme 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":
