After getting a copy of my medical records from my old doctor, which had a copy of the positive test for Lyme Disease, my new doctor is now refusing to treat me. Something is fishy. The new doctor seemed completely open to treating me before. Now he's washing his hands of me. He tried pawning me off to Dr. P in Buffalo (an extremely RUDE and arrogant woman who I highly recommend you avoid at all costs), who I already went to see, but she doesn't accept my insurance. I asked her to treat me with more respect last time I saw her. She told me we weren't "developing a good doctor-patient relationship" (ie: I'm not worshipping her as the doctor-God she feels she is), thus she didn't want to see me again.
So, my new doctor referred me to a doctor who has refused to see me since February. I tried telling them she won't see me. They basically told me "tough" and that they're not going to see me anymore.
WTF?!
Things changed radically as soon as they got my medical records. I've seen my medical records, and it's filled with the doctor trying to cover his butt, and it even documents my previous doctors ineptness (he documented his own refusal to test me for coinfections claiming I was being difficult, then how he relented just to shut me up, and then the positive test for Babesiosis).
I'm labeled as "difficult" for advocating for myself, and no doctor will see me.

You need to find a good LLMD here on the board even it means that you have to travel a distance to see them.
The others are just a WASTE of your precious TIME and ENERGY! Really..

Exactly. Do NOT see another "LLMD" unless you find at least three "happy satisfied customers" of this dr. I never heard of a Dr P in NY. Quack, quack, quack.
