Hello, I have been sick for 10 months now, and am so discouraged and frustrated. I was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, but now a new doctor has diagnosed me with Chronic Lyme. I can not find a doctor to see me about this, and I really want to act on this asap!! Please help me locate a doctor for Chronic Lyme in or near Connecticut. I live in Simsbury, CT (the Hartford area), but am willing to travel. Thank you so much!!! Also, if anyone has any input on the diagnosis, I would greatly appreciate it - I was diagnosed based on a positive bloodtest for Babesiosis - all of the usual bloodtests for Lyme came back negative, so it wasn't a second thought until now. Has this happened to anyone else? If so, is it treatable?? Thanks again!
