Hi-
I was not diagnosed yet but I have had tingling all over my body for 4 months and the past few days I have had mild knee pain, sore muscles, and shooting burning sensations all over my body. Even have heaviness in my chest (anxiety?)
I have an appt with LLMD Dr. M in NYC on feb 18th- I am scared to wait so long- what should I do??
few months ago i had blood done at labcorp
equivocal ELISA, WB showed 41 and 66 reactive.
I have had tests for lots of other things and everything is fine. Don't know what to do anymore!! i am so frustrated!
-------------------- First Symptom 9/09 Multiple docs, negative Labcorp test LLMD: 1/10 Positive Igenex/CDC test Treatment 2/10 2/10-8/10 Amox, ceftin, zith, flagyl Currently: Bicillin, Minocycline, still dealing with severe breathing issues

Have you tried going to your primary care physician to get one-two months of antibiotics to tide you over until you have your Feb 18 appt?

No, I haven't. I am seeing him tonight. But he told me that he doesn't know about lyme and wants me to see infectious disease doc. I don't know if he is comfortable giving me 2 months of antibiotics for something I may not have.
Also, I have candida issues and am working on that too. If i take antibiotics without being sure I have something, it can hurt me in other ways
now you see the confusion :/
