Would prefer an LLMD that uses the Parasite Protocol given in Bryan Rosner's book Freedom From Lyme Disease, or is familiar with Dr. Simon Yu's parasite protocol. People with Lyme can't afford to not address parasite issues!
If anyone has had success in getting rid of parasites please let me know. Even though I am currently in Baltimore, I would even consider traveling to NJ or NY for treatment.
Thank you!

I can give you the name of a very good lyme doctor in your area. However, I have no idea if he treats parasites and, if so, what protocol he uses.
This is the only lyme doctor I recommend in the Baltimore-Washington, southern Pa, NOVA area. So, if you have lyme, I suggest you go to him to get the best lyme treatment and then find another practitioner to help you with parasites.
NJ and NY are not good places to go for lyme treatment. The few good lyme doctors in NY have 1-2 year waits and nobody good in NJ. So, the pickins are slim when it comes to getting good lyme treatment--very slim.

Welcome to Lymenet! PM sent for MD.
I don't know of any Lyme doctors who treat parasites. Contact Bryan Rosner (you can find his e-mail or phone number in his book) and ask if he might know of anyone to recommend you to.
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":
The top LLMD, Dr. H, has written a book entitled, "Why Can't I Get Better?". It is an excellent source of information.
Read "Cure Unknown" by Pamela Weintraub. Get it at your local library or buy it used on Amazon.

There is a long, but very informative thread found in the "Medical Questions" section of Lymenet called "Parasite Warriors Support Thread". I think you will find it extremely interesting and useful.
