I fought the lyme battle for many years myself but have been blessed to be in long term remission for my second time now.

I have a friend in RI that has just been diagnosed and being out of the loop for a few years now, I don't even know which LLMD's may still be out there.

Can anyone help me with a LLMD in RI or else in MA? Any help would be so greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I tried to send you back a reply, but it said your box was full.

Thank you so much for your quick reply. That is exactly what I needed.

I don't know of any LLMDs in RI. PM sent with a couple of suggestions.

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

Check the online state Lyme groups at:
https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/RhodeIslandLyme/info

Maybe they can help.

Some more resources (including Support Groups info):

The top LLMD, Dr. H, has written a book entitled, "Why Can't I Get Better?". It is an excellent source of information.

Have your friend read "Cure Unknown" by Pamela Weintraub. Get it at your local library or buy it used on Amazon.
