Desperately need a Pstchiatrist that treats Lyme patients- Have been treated for Lyme by LLMD ILADS but he is close to NY- so he doesn’t know of any out by me.

I would like to find a Psychiatrist near or in Boston as that is where many of my other Dr’s are. I have had depression and bi-polar 1
I’m on a lot of psychiatric meds and was hospitalized recently with a lithium level of 1.8 I had not had a lithium level drawn in 2 years -new prescriptions should never have been written without a lithium level. Dr in western MA

I need to find a new Dr that will monitor me and my meds closer so I will be safe with brain fog
Any suggestions appreciated

I don't know of any in MA. Sent you a PM with some suggestions.

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

Maybe they can help. They would know better about MA.

Some more resources for you (including Support Groups info):

Sorry I don't know of any either in Mass.

Maybe connect with the Central Mass Lyme Foundation to get some feedback on LLMD's in your area ;

Well there is who was in Under our Skin with her children treated by Dr. J. She is a psychologist in Newton. I believe she is a member of ILAD's (I know she has presented at ILAD's).
