Topic: LLMD in PA

I am 27/female, diagnosed in September 2009 with Lymes.

I moved to Philadelphia a few weeks ago and looking for an LLMD list for PA.

I was on 6 weeks of antibiotics when diagnosed, but symptoms have not subsided since then (very achy, extreme fatigue).

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Kathy

Kathy,

Welcome. Sorry for your situation but I hope you find answers here.

people will be along to PM a list to you.

I'm concerned that you may be using your real name here. With your city posted and your diagnosis, this opens you up to violation of privacy - even with insurance matters, now or in the future.

Right after you get a LLMD list PMed to you, if you are using your real name, it would be best to delete this thread and re-register with a web name that no one can figure out is you.

Good luck finding what you need to regain your health.
