I am just getting diagnosed 10-15 years after a tick bite and I'm reeling over the idea that my identical twins, age 6, might have Lyme disease, not be autistic (or maybe both?). It all makes so much more sense now. Mind blown.

Can anyone provide specific names of doctors in Massachusetts or in nearby states who would be really good with kids? I looked at links from previous threads, but specific recommendations mean a lot, and I really want to get this right.

Sorry about the horrific situation you and your children find yourselves in. Tick Borne Infections will rock your world. We will help any way we can.

You can request an ILADS doctor here;

They respond fairly quickly. You must research each Doctor's treatment protocols and patients feedback.

I am sending you a private message.
