I am located between Frederick and Baltimore and 1 hr from Washington, DC.
I would like to find someone who is familiar with Lyme disease and both the physical and psychological effects.
If you know of anyone, I'd appreciate it!
Thanks so much:)

wondering, NONE on my MD list! try this:
Please go to SUPPORT GROUPS, left-hand side column by state. CALL the nearest group leader for advise. Do NOT email; many are too sick to reply; thanks!
People seeking doctors in certain states might be able to get help from their state online information and support group. Over 1500 people belong to these state groups. Many of the groups are small but quite a few have 20 or more people on them.
Type your state name and lyme as one word, e.g. newyorklyme
For SC, SD, ND and WY, put a hyphen between the statename and lyme, e.g. northdakota-lyme
The groups are moderated so you have to apply, and we don't allow doctor names, but once on the group, you can ask for doctors in a certain area and ask people to email you privately.
For Online Doctor Referrals, click on the following URL for the Lyme Disease Association Doctor Referral page:
Thank you Bettyg, you are the best:)

Thank you all so much.
I am sorry I took a little while to respond to the PM's.
I am so grateful for all the info I've received and I think I have found a doctor who may hopefully be able to help me, both physically and emotionally.
