SUPPORT GROUPS .... LYME FOR ``YOUR'' STATE! See below!! 8-19-07
You might be interested in joining your online state yahoo group. All are set up the same way with the state name and lyme run together as one word, http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/STATENAMELYME, e.g. newyorklyme,
except for 4 states which have a hyphen between the statename and lyme, e.g. southcarolina-lyme. Those states are SC, WY, ND, SD.
The groups were set up by Phyllis Mervine of CALDA, Calif. LDA, to help create an infrastructure for the Lyme community for patient support, local resources, and political action. thx Phyllis!

Jer,
I've looked around the area for specific docs, but my main doc (in California) suggested 2 things. 1. talk to my neurologist about this - which I will do and 2. Look for a dr. that specializes in Infectious Diseases. In our area, there is one practice south of the city. I know nothing about them, so I'm going to call and see what they have to say.
This is the info: (and I hope it's okay to post this since there are no pracitioner names)
Pittsburgh Infectious Disease 101 Drake Rd Pittsburgh, PA 15241 Map

You've got to be kidding!!!
Neuros and ID ducks are among the worst when it comes to knowing anything about Lyme disease testing or treatment.
Worthless if you ask me!

Take it from a PIXS burger here....
lose the infectious disease docs, ESPECIALLY those in Pittsburgh.
I know of some LLMDs in PA. If you need them still, give me a PM.
