Hi I am new here and need some help!!!I have just been diagnosed with chronic lyme after 10 years of being mis-diagnosed. I am looking for the best treatment I can find. My father has heard from people he works with that there are drs. in Westchester that are renowned in the treatment of lyme. does anyone know of these drs, or anyone in the N.Y. N.J. or Conn. area ? Thank you for time and your help will be greatly appreciated.

welcome jamie to the board, and we will help you.
now please tell us about yourself:
is this for yourself or a child; what age str you jamie?
did you have an imbedded tick? a bulls-eye rash?
symptoms?
have you had testing done: western blot igm and igg blood test by:
igenex in calif; md labs in nj; or stoneybrook in ny ... they are the best USA has!
i just sent you privately my 46 pages newbie links/advise!
please answer these questions then we can assist you in getting good llmd for your age group!!
be sure to sign BOTH LYME PETITIONS, and ask family, friends, co-workers, church members, orgs, and all you know OVER 18 sign this too.
i'm pretty sure the UNDER THE SKIN LYME DOCUMENTARY is in there, but if not, check right now in ACTIVISM BY KRIS KROFT, one of the folks involved in this important lyme project!
they have a "trailer" to view IF YOU HAVE HIGH-SPEED INTERNET; folk like me with dial-up can NOT view it.
it's 20 minutes long and will give your family/friends extra knowledge what it is like to have lyme and all the political implications plus health insurance NOT paying our lyme bills, appts., labs, blood tests, etc!
you had a wonderful, informative write-up; thanks for telling us so much about yourself. Thank you for NOT posting in continuous long blocks of text that we neuro lymies, like me, can not read/comprehend! that is so much appreciated by many of us here.
when you have a medical question, post it there. when you need SUPPORT, post here.
need a LLMD, LYME LITERATE MD, post in seeking dr. and put the STATE and NEAREST LARGEST CITY IN TOPIC TITLE so folks from your state can pitch in right away to help you ok! i'll send you my welcome package before my lyme mind forgets!
