Glad you found help.

Sorry you are in the hospital. I know they are no fun. I also know not being able to walk is no fun. I hope they can help you walk better.

Hopefully now you will get improvements.

Best wishes

I didn't know there was such a thing as an LLMD who actually had hospital privileges!!!

Seriously though, I hope you get out of the duck motel soon.

So glad you are getting the help you need.

Kathy, I don't think we've met before here on the board.

So sorry to read of your being in the hospital getting PT, but so happy you found someone BELIEVING in our lyme disease, and will work with you and Dr. C!

Thanks for taking the time to let the board there is another LLMD there for someone to turn to for treatment.

Best wishes all goes well for your recovery.

Nice to hear from you Kathy and that you have found some help. I have a feeling there are other doctors who would help if the climate ever got friendlier to good medicine.

Hi Kathy [again!!] So glad you were able to email us and let us know! I hope the walking gets better soon. It's been a long struggle for you.

Does anyone have kathy klopfer's e-mail address? I have PM'd her, but she hasn't responded. I would like to know who this doc is.

Thanks

Good morning Kathy,

I sure do hope that you are feeling better and out of the hospital by now! My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I would also be very interested in knowing who the doc is that is helping you there in TN. When you can find the time, would you please email that information on to me?

I and many others would be so appreciative!

Thank you, and please take good care,
melanie

Hi Kathy,

I pray that you will have a speedy recovery. You have been truly Blessed to find a good ID that will treat you for your lyme.

When you get well please send me the doctors number and contact information as well.

Can you tell me if she does testing through Igenex?

Blessings,

Julia [hi]

Did you notice that the original posting on this thread was last May? I am not sure she is monitoring this board. Could be.

Anyway...
You can send her a private message by clicking on the envelope. She will get back to you if you include your e-mail address for her.

Pure Lymie,

Please let us know.

Thanks a bunch.

Posted by jeffsdad (Member # 10169) on :

ditto.

Pure Lymie I PM'd you also. I also need the information - not for my son but for a family we met who hails from Nashville.

Posted by Melanie Reber (Member # 3707) on :

Good morning all,

Sorry, I didn't look to see that this is indeed an older post.

But...

if one of you wouldn't mind emailing the Nashville info to me so I can pass it on, I would very much appreciate it. [Smile]

Thanks in advance,
Melanie

Posted by Boomerang (Member # 7979) on :

I'd really like to know who Pure Lymie is talking about also. I sent PM but got no response.

Please let me know if you find out anything, Melanie.

Thanks

Hey Boomerang I emailed you at your personal email a couple of days ago. I've got to run to work for a few hours, will get back to you this afternoon. Sara

Posted by yourtroubl (Member # 11087) on :

I think I might like to go to Nashville. I could use a glimps of Toby Keith etc. I might not get well but I would feel better for a few minutes.

I wish you a speedy recovery.

Posted by Boomerang (Member # 7979) on :

Thanks so much, Sara!! (and Ron also)

I really appreciate it.
