Searching for LLMD in Maine, I've had the test waiting on results but the dr I saw said There is no fever associated with Lyme nor is there multiple EM rashes, I now have a total of 10 rashes, low grade fever, coughing, fatigue, loss of appetite. I've tried to do my research on Lyme and feel like test will come back negative this soon after rash appeared. Thanks for any help anyone can give.

Welcome to Lymenet! PM sent for ME.
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!
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":
