I have struggling with undiagnosed illness for 3 years. Time to look into Lyme disease now. Have been checked by doctors but don't feel that is enough. Thanks for any help. Live an hour away from Minneapolis Minnesota.

Welcome to Lymenet! PM sent for MN.
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.
Unfortunately, LLMDs are far and few between. You need to go where they are.
Also, most LLMDs do not accept insurance due to the politics surrounding this horrible disease. Read poster TF's explanation, "Why Lyme Doctors Don't Take Insurance":
