I am in desperate need of a Lyme doctor in Fredericksburg or Richmond Virginia. Will even consider southern Maryland in la plate or Waldorf areas.
My primary care has already treated me with 30 days of doxy. Since being off the antibiotics, my symptoms have come back and have worsened. I now have an impartial right bundle branch block which is new (have previous EKG). ID will not see me and went to neuro today. Still no treatment and neuro has run some vitamin deficiency labs and plans to do an MRI of my head.....have had terrible head pressure and headaches going on 2 weeks.
Rheumatology can't see me for months. Already been to the er for chest pain, shortness of breath and a list of other Lyme related symptoms. This is where my abnormal EKG came up.
I am in desperate need of a doctor that will see me NOW! Oh, and my Lyme test....igg/img is now positive. In August it was equivical. No one has done western blot.

I sent you some names and lots of information.
You will have to travel to the D.C. area to get great lyme treatment.
It will help you tremendously to learn about lyme disease. Then, you can perhaps be more calm about all of the various lyme symptoms you are experiencing.
The best document to give you your education on this illness and its symptoms and treatment is the Burrascano Lyme Treatment Guidelines found here:
See pages 9-10 for a list of lyme symptoms. You will find all of your symptoms here. Good lyme treatment will take care of these symptoms.
I suggest you stop wasting time and money with the neuro, rhemy, and ID docs. They can't help you. They don't have a clue.

There is a doc in the Hollins College, VA vicinity -- I am not supposed to use the names of cities.
Send me an email if you would like that name.
seibertbb (at) yahoo (dot) com
Bea Seibert
Ok -- the name has changed to Hollins University but either search should work.
