Am new to this website, and to the complications in receiving an accurate diagnosis and treatment for lyme.

My husband first tested positive for lyme 6 years ago. Recently he developed a complicated set of symptoms that appear lyme related, but pcp's don't recognize them as a recurrence of lyme.

Am looking for a lld that will recognize the lyme relationship. Symptoms: brain fog, memory loss, fatigue, flu-like symptome, joint swelling and pain (feet), headaches...the list goes on.

We have gone to a support group in the area, and were given guidance, but no one is willing yet to give us any doctor's names. We don't know what to do or where to turn at this point.

Thank you for your help. We are narrowing down our list of potential providers. Right now, it is necessary that we look into providers that take some form of insurance. There is an MD on the list from Dekrator48 that is very close to us, and does take my insurance, but I cannot find any information or reviews either on the web or on this website. Hi is Dr. Z, 10th from the bottom. Does anyone have any experience with him? Thanks fo much.
