Any advice or personal experiences from south of the border or elsewhere? I don't think an LLMD is going to be able to help me because at this point I kind of doubt I would test positive for lyme or babs. Just have some complications that need to be dealt with asap and the U.S HMO-business model bureaucracy is unable to even have the right conversation much less solve my problem. Their treatment of choice is KTM (kill the messenger). I'm sure there are some well meaning independent doctors left but I don't really have unlimited resources for office visits, travel and tests. In other words if I have to pay hundreds of dollars out of pocket it needs to be for the treatment not the preliminary stuff.

please remember to break up your typing into short paragraphs so we neuro lymies can read/comprehend, and try to help.

Go to support groups, left hand, and see what you can find there. Call the leader vs. emailing as so many are very sick and can't email/write back. good luck! Bettyg [Big Grin]
