I just moved from ct to Smithtown long Island. I also was recently diagnosed with lyme disease. Can you please assist with referring a doctor in the long Island area and southern ct?
Thanks

Welcome to Lymenet! PM sent for NY & CT.
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 Dr. H, the top LLMD titled, "Why Can't I Get Better?" and his new one, "How Can I Get Better?". They are an excellent source of information.
Also "Cure Unknown" by Pamela Weintraub. Check your local library or buy it used on Amazon.
