I was just diagnosed in October, and have been seeing a sort of Lyme doc since then. She attends ILADS conferences and stuff but isn't officially an LLMD.
I've been taking 200mg doxy for about three months now and I think I may have reached a plateau SO feel its time to move on to a true LLMD.
I made an appt. with Dr. M in New York City. He takes health insurance (hallelujah!) so I can finally afford to go to someone. I got his name from Lymenet, so I was hoping someone could offer me feeback.
I was thinking about seeing Dr. Y but he is a neurologist and I don't have any bad neuro symptoms. My symptoms are mostly arthritic and Dr. M. is a rheumatologist.
Could anyone who's seen Dr. M or knows something about him post here or PM me? I'm so glad he's taking health insurance, but always wary of the fact that he takes health insurance, if that makes any sense.
Thanks!

Yup, I have all the doctors in NYC. It seems that there about three that are actually in the city (not in the burbs around) and I don't have a car so I have to see a doc that is accessible by subway.
Its not a Dr. Mo.
Sorry if this is confusing with all the doc name abbreviations. I was just sort of hoping that those who are or have seen a Dr. M. in Manhattan would know who I'm talking about.
Let me know! Thanks.
