Hello, Does anyone know of any lyme literate docs in Boise Idaho? I live in Tacoma, WA and plan to move there next year. I also am on Medicare and have a medigap supplement. Thanks, Sheryl

Welcome to Lymenet sheryl
I do not know of any LLMD'S in Idaho but there are a few ND's. Idaho's state laws regarding Lyme Litterate Medical Doctors(LLMD'S) are very similar to Washington state. . , there is no protection againest liciencing boards from dispensary actions.
Be sure to utilize lymenet's 'search' function to research all things Lyme. From treatments, symptoms, and emotional and compassionate support, it's all located on this website. We are all in this together.
I will send you a private message.

You need to be evaluated and treated by a Lyme-literate doctor (LLMD). Non LLMDs have no clue about this horrible disease or its complex treatment!
A LLMD is one who has treated Lyme disease and the co-infections which come with it for many years and has gotten patients well. A good one will follow Dr. B's Guidelines, the "gold standard" for Lyme treatment.
Read the books written by the top LLMD, Dr. Richard Horowitz, titled, "Why Can't I Get Better?" and "How Can I Get Better?". They are an excellent source of information.
Also read "Cure Unknown" by Pamela Weintraub. View "Under Our Skin" and "Under Our Skin2: Emergence". Check your local library or buy them used on online.
Btw - I know you are new to Lymenet, but you should not use your real name, because this is a public forum with all sorts of people on it. Read this link about it:
To remove your name from the signature line, click on "Edit Profile" under Lymenet Flash in the top middle section of the Lymenet page.
Click on "Edit Profile" on the left-hand side, scroll down to "Profile Fields" then down to "Signature". Make your changes, then click "Update Profile".
