After being treated with antibiotics last year my Lyme disease subsided but I can feel it coming back. I am so tired and my body feels heavy. I don’t want to go back to my urgent care and would be grateful for any suggestions for an llmd in my area. I live in Budd Lake NJ, which is close to Morristown. Thank you so much!

Welcome to Lymenet!
May I ask if you were under the care of a LLMD (=Lyme-literate doctor) before? I am not a doctor, but it is possible you were under-treated and additional co-infections not addressed.
I don't know of any LLMDs in NJ.
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. H, 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. Get it at your local library or buy them used 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".

Sorry to hear it is coming back. Maybe this will help?
